Locking and unlocking centrally
You can start, lock or unlock the vehicle using
KEYLESS-GO. To do this, you only need carry
the SmartKey with you. When you touch the
surface of the sensors on the vehicle's
outside door handles, KEYLESS-GO
establishes a radio connection between the
vehicle and the SmartKey. When the engine
is started and whilst you are driving,
KEYLESS-GO also check
swhether a valid
SmartKey is in the vehicle by periodically
establishing radio contact.
You can combine the functions of KEYLESS-
GO with those of a conventional key. Unlock
the vehicle by using KEYLESS-GO, for
instance, and lock it using the 000Fbutton on
the SmartKey.
When locking or unlocking with KEYLESS-GO,
the distance between the SmartKey and the
corresponding door handle must not be
greater than 3 ft (1 m). SmartKey

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 yourh ealth. 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.
The HomeLink ®

the memory of the integrated garage door
opener (Y page 265).
X Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the
ignition lock.
X Press and hold one of buttons 0004to0023 on
the integrated garage door opener.
After a short time, indicator lamp 0003lights
up yellow.
i Indicator lamp 0003lights up yellow as soon
as button 0004,0024or0023 is programmed for
the first time. If the selected button has
already been programmed, indicator
lamp 0003will only light up yellow after ten
seconds have elapsed.
X Release button 0004,0024or0023. Indicator
lamp 0003flashes yellow.
X Point garage door remote control 0021
towards buttons 0004to0023 on the rear-view mirror at a distance of 2 to 8 inches (5 to
20 cm).
i The required distance between remote
control 0021and the integrated garage door
opener depends on the garage door drive
system. Several attemptsm ight be
necessary. You should tes tevery position
for at least 25 seconds before trying
another position.
X Press and hold button 0022on remote control
0021 until indicator lamp 0003lights up green.
If indicator lamp 0003lights up green or
flashes, then programming has been
successful.
X Release button 0022on remote control 0021for
the garage door drive system.
X If indicator lamp 0003lights up red: repeat
the programming procedure for the
corresponding button on the rear-view
mirror. When doing so, vary the distance
between remote control 0021and the rear-
view mirror.
i If the indicator lamp flashes green after
successful programming, the garage door
system is using a rolling code. After
programming, you must synchronize the
garage door opener integrated in the rear-
view mirror with the receive rofthe garage
door system.
Synchronizing the rolling code
Your vehicle must be within reach of the
garage door or exterior gate drive. Make sure
that neither your vehicle nor any persons/
objects are present within the sweep of the
door or gate.
Observe the safety notes when performing
the rolling code synchronization.
X Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the
ignition lock.
X Press the programming button of the door
or gate drive (see the door or gate drive
operating instructions, e.g. under
"Programming of additional remote
controls"). Features
263Stowage and features Z

i
Usually, you now have 30seconds to
initiate the next step.
X Press previously programmed button 0004,
0024 or0023 of the integrated garage door
opener until the door closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then
complete.
Notes on programming the remote
control
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission
signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated garage door
opener. The signal is not recognized during
programming. Comparable with Canadian
law, some U.S. garage door openers are
designed to "time-out" in the same manner.
Proceed as follows:
R if you live in Canada
R if you have difficulties programming the
garage door opener (regardless of where
you live) when using the programming
steps
X Press and hold one of buttons 0004to0023 on
the integrated garage door opener.
After a short time, indicator lamp 0003lights
up yellow.
X Release the button.
Indicator lamp 0003flashes yellow.
X Press button 0022of garage door remote
control 0021for two seconds, then release it
for two seconds.
X Press button 0022againf or two seconds.
X Repeat this sequence on button 0022of
remote control 0021until indicator lamp 0003
lights up green.
If indicator lamp 0003turns red, repeat the
process.
X Continue with the other programming
steps (see above). Problems when programming
If you are experiencing problems
programming the integrated garage door
opener on the rear-view mirror, take note of
the following instructions:
R
Check the transmitter frequency of garage
door drive remote control 0021.This can
usually be found on the back of the remote
control.
The integrated garage door opener is
compatible with devices that have units
which operate in the frequency range of
280to 433MHz.
R Replace the batteries in garage door
remote control 0021.This increases the
likelihood that garage door remote control
0021 will transmit a stronga nd precise signal
to the integrated garage door opene rinthe
rear-view mirror.
R When programming, hold remote control
0021 at varying distances and angles from the
button that 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 another remote control for the same
garage door drive is available, repeat the
same programming steps with this remote
control. Before performing these steps,
make sure that new batteries have been
installed in garage door drive remote
control 0021.
R Note that some remote controls only
transmit for a limited amount of time (the
indicator lamp on the remote control goes
out). Press button 0022on remote control
0021 again before transmission ends.
R Align the antenna cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal
reception/transmission.
Opening/closing the garage door After it has been programmed, the integrated
garage door opener performs the function of
the garage door system remote control.264
