Geo fencing
Geo fencing allows you to select areas which
the vehicle should
not
enter or leave. You will
be informed if the vehicle crosses the
boundaries of the selected areas. You can
select the way in which you receive this
information beforehand. Possible options
include text message, e-mail or an automated
call.
The area can be determined as either a circle
or a polygon with a maximum of ten corners.
You can specify up to ten areas
simultaneously. Different settings are
possible for each area.
USA only: these settings can be called up
under "Owners Online" at http://
www.mbusa.com.
Alternatively, you can trigger an MB Info call
and inform the customer service
representative that you wish to activate geo
fencing.
Currently inactive areas can be activated by
text message.
Triggering the vehicle alarm With this function, you can trigger the
vehicle's panic alarm via text message. An
alarm sounds and the exterior lighting
flashes. Depending on the setting, the panic
alarm lasts five or ten seconds. Afterwards,
the alarm switches off.
Brush guard (USA only)
G
WARNING
The brush guard is designed solely to enhance
the appearance of the vehicle and help
protect grille and headlamps from minor
mishaps, either on or off road.
Since the safety characteristics

are limited in
the event of an accident, brush guard are not
intended to prevent injury or damage in the
event of an accident. Also observe state and
local regulations on installation and use. Raise and lower the brush guard in an open
space with plenty of room.
i If you wish to remove the brush guard,
contact a qualified specialist workshop. Garage door opener
Important safety notes G
WARNING
Before programming the integrated remote
control to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure people and objects are
out of the way of the device to prevent
potential harm or damage. When
programming a garage door

opener, the door
moves up or down. When programming a gate
operator, the gate opens or closes.
Do not use the integrated remote control with
any garage door opener that lacks safety stop
and reverse features as required by U.S.
federal safety standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the door
to stop and reverse - does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards.
When programming a garage door opener,
park vehicle outside the garage.
Do not run the engine while programming the
integrated remote control. Inhalation of
exhaust gas is hazardous to your health. All
exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide (CO),
and inhaling it can cause unconsciousness
and possible death. All exhaust gas contains
carbon monoxide (CO), and inhaling it can
cause unconsciousness and possible death.
You can use the HomeLink ®
garage door
opener integrated into the rear-view mirror to
operate up to three different gate/garage
door opener systems. 280

X
Point transmitter button 0083 of garage door
remote control 0084
towards the transmitter
buttons on the rear-view mirror at a
distance of 2 to 12 inches (5 to 30 cm).
i The distance between garage door
remote control 0083 and the integrated
garage door opener
depends

on the system
of the garage door drive. Several attempts
might be necessary. You should test every
position for at least 20 seconds before
trying another position.
X Keep transmitter button 0084 on garage door

the distance between the garage door's
remote control and
the

transmitter buttons
in the rear-view mirror.
i If the garage door system works with a
rolling code, you must synchronize the
remote control integrated in the rear-view
mirror with the garage door system
receiver after programming.
You will find further information in the
garage door opening system's operating
instructions, e.g. the sections on
"Synchronizing the transmitter" or
"Registering a new transmitter". You can
also call the hotline mentioned above. Synchronizing the rolling code

Notes on programming the remote
control
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission 282
Features
Stowage and features

signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated remote control to
recognize the signal during programming.
Comparable with Canadian law, American
garage door openers also have a built-in
"interruption".
If you live in Canada or have difficulties
programming the garage door opener
(regardless of where
you
live) when using the
programming steps, proceed as follows: Integrated remote control in the rear-view mirror

X At the

same time, press transmitter button

two seconds, then release it for two
seconds, then press it again for two
seconds.
X Repeat this sequence on transmitter

If you have problems when programming the
integrated remote control, please note the
following:
R Check the transmitter
frequency

of garage
door remote control 0083 (which can usually
be found on the back of the remote
control).
The integrated remote control is
compatible with devices that have units
which operate in the frequency range of
280 to 390 MHz.
R Replace the batteries in garage door
remote control 0083. This increases the
probability of garage door remote control
0083 sending a strong and more precise
signal to the integrated remote control on
the rear-view mirror.
R When programming, hold garage door
remote control 0083 at varying distances and
angles from the transmitter button which
you are programming. Try various angles at
a distance between 2and 12 inches (5to
30 cm) or at the same angle but at varying
distances.
R If there is another garage door remote
control for the same device, perform the
programming steps again using that garage Features
283Stowage and features Z

door opener. Before performing these
steps, make sure that new batteries have
been inserted in the garage door remote
control.
R Align the antenna cable
of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal
reception/transmission.

WARNING
Whenever you are using a floormat, make sure
there is enough clearance and that the
floormat is securely fastened.
The floormat should always be securely
fastened using the fastening equipment.
Before driving off, check that the floormat is
securely in place and

adjust it if necessary. A
loose floormat could slip and hinder proper
functioning of the pedals.
Do not place several floormats on top of each
other as this may impair pedal movement. 284
