If the alarm system is armed, a visual and
audible alarm is triggered by the following:
R Unlocking the vehicle from inside
R Opening a door
R Opening the hood
i The alarm is not switched off, even if you
immediately close the open door that has
triggered it, for example.
X To stop the alarm: press the0036button
on the remote control.
Or
X Insert the key into the ignition lock.
The alarm stops. Tow-away alarm
Operation A visual and audible alarm is triggered if the
inclination of the vehicle changes when the
tow-away alarm is armed. This can be the
case if the vehicle is raised on one side, for
example.
Arming/deactivating The tow-away alarm is automatically armed
approximately 20 seconds after you lock the
vehicle.
The tow-away alarm is automatically deacti-
vated when you unlock the vehicle.
Deactivating X
Remove the key from the ignition lock.
X Press button 0043.
When the button is released, the indicator
lamp on button 0044lights up for about
5 seconds.
X Lock the vehicle.
The tow-away alarm is deactivated.
The tow-away alarm remains deactivated
until you lock the vehicle again.
Deactivate the tow-away alarm when locking
your vehicle and:
R loading and/or transporting the vehicle, on
a ferry or car transporter, for example
R parking on a moving surface, as split-level
garage
This will prevent false alarms. Interior motion sensor
Operation If the armed interior motion sensor detects
motion in the vehicle interior, a visual and
acoustic alarm is triggered. This can happen
if someone reaches into the vehicle interior,
for example.
i
If the interior motion sensor is armed and
the auxiliary heating system (Y page 122)
switches on, a false alarm may occur as a
result of interior temperature monitoring.
In this case, either deactivate the interior
motion sensor or switch off the auxiliary
heating.
Arming X
Close the side windows.
X Make sure that nothing (such as mascots
or coat hangers) are hanging on the rear-
view mirror or on the grab handles on the
headliner.
This will prevent false alarms.
X Lock the vehicle.
The interior motion sensor is armed after
approximately 40 seconds. Theft deterrent locking system

Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models
as well as standard and optional equipment
of your vehicle that were available at the time
of going to print. Country-specific variations
are possible. Note that your vehicle may not
be equipped with all of the described func-
tions. This also applies to systems and func-
tions relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 26). Seats
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If the driver's seat is not engaged, it could
move unexpectedly while the vehicle is in
motion. This could cause you to lose control
of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Always make sure that the driver's seat is
engaged before starting the engine. G
WARNING
When you adjust a seat, you or other vehicle
occupants could become trapped, e.g. on the
seat guide rail. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure when adjusting a seat that no one
has any body parts in the sweep of the seat. G
WARNING
If head restraints are not installed and
adjusted correctly, they cannot provide pro-
tection as intended. There is an increased risk
of injury in the head and neck area, e.g. in the
event of an accident or when braking.
Always drive with the head restraints instal-
led. Before driving off, make sure for every
vehicle occupant that the center of the head
restraint supports the back of the head at
about eye level.
Your seat must be adjusted in such a way that
you can wear the seat belt correctly. Observe the following points:
R
Position the backrest in an almost vertical
position so that you are sitting virtually
upright. Do not drive with the backrest
reclined too far back.
R Your arms should be slightly bent when you
are holding the steering wheel.
R Avoid seat positions that prevent the seat
belt from being routed correctly. The
shoulder section of the belt must be routed
over the middle of your shoulder and be
pulled tight against your upper body. The
lap belt must always pass across your lap
as low down as possible, i.e. over your hip
joints.
R Adjust the head restraint so that it supports
the back of the head at eye level.
R The distance from the pedals should be
such that you can depress them fully.
Observe also the safety notes in the section
on "Air bags" (Y page 44) and "Children in the
vehicle" ( Ypage 50).
If you swap over the head restraints for the
front and rear seats, you will not be able to
adjust the height and angle of the head
restraints to the correct position.
Use the head restraint pad to adjust the head
restraint so that it is as close as possible to
the back of your head.
Before the journey, make sure the head
restraints have been correctly set for each of
the vehicle's passengers (Y page 86).82
