Memory
Fig. 10
Multi-function display - Display example of the memory
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 25.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories, 1 and 2. The
selected memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 10.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the ig- nition is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the cal-
culation of the current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours
after switching off the ignition. If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours,
the memory is automatically erased.
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total trip memory collates the data from any number of individual trips up to
a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes or a 1999 km distance or, for vehicles with a
MAXI DOT display, 99 hours and 59 minutes, or a 9999 km distance. The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calculation starts all over
again.
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not deleted after a period of interruption of driving of 2 hours.

The instruments are also illuminated when the side light, low or high beam light is switched on.
WARNINGAlways adjust the headlight beam to satisfy the following conditions.■The vehicle does not dazzle other road users, especially oncoming vehicles.■
The beam range is sufficient for safe driving.
Note
■ We recommend you adjust the headlight beam when the low beam is switched
on.■
The Bi-Xenon bulbs adapt automatically to the load and driving state of the ve-
hicle when the ignition is switched on and when driving. Vehicles that are equip- ped with Bi-Xenon headlights do not have a manual headlight range adjustment
control.
■
The low beam continues to shine while the ignition is switched on and the light
switch is in the position or . After switching off the ignition, the low beam
is switched off automatically and only the side lights come on. The side light goes
out after the ignition key is removed.

COMING HOME / LEAVING HOME
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 51.
COMING HOME/LEAVING HOME (hereafter referred to only as function) makes it
possible to automatically switch on the lights for a short time after leaving the
vehicle or when approaching the vehicle in poor visibility.

If both switch-on conditions are conflicting, for example, if the front wheels are turned to the left and
the right turn signal light is switched on, the turn signal light has the higher priority.

CAUTIONNever mechanically fold in or fold back the exterior mirrors with the fold-in func-
tion by hand as this will damage the electric drive.
Note
■
Automatic mirror dimming operates only properly if the sun screen for the rear
window in the housing on the boot cover is not in use or the light striking the in- terior rear-view mirror is not affected by other objects.■
If the automatic interior mirror dimming is switched off, the exterior mirror dim-
ming is also switched off.
■
The mirror heater only operates when the engine is running and up to an out-
side temperature of +35 ℃.
■
Do not touch the surface of the exterior mirrors if the exterior mirror heater is
switched on.
■
If the electrical exterior mirror setting fails at any time, the mirrors can be adjus-
ted by hand by pressing on the edge of the mirror surface.
■
Contact a specialist garage if there is a fault with the power setting function for
the exterior mirrors.

Adjusting the seats
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Manually adjusting the front seats
67
Electric front seat adjustment
67
Head restraints
68
Memory function of the electrically adjustable seat
69
Memory function of the remote control key
69
The driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the pedals can be fully
pressed to the floor with slightly bent legs.
The seat backrest on the driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the
upper point of the steering wheel can be easily reached with slightly bent arms.
Correct adjustment of the seats is particularly important:
› for safely and quickly reaching the controls;
› for a relaxed body position that reduces fatigue;
› for achieving maximum protection from the seat belts and the airbag system.
WARNINGGeneral information■Caution when adjusting the seat! You may suffer injuries or bruises as a re-
sult of adjusting the seat without paying proper attention.■
The electric front seat adjustment is still functional if the ignition is switch-
ed off (even with the ignition key removed). Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle.
■
The seat backrests must not be tilted too far back when driving, as this will
impair the function of the seat belts and of the airbag system – risk of injury!
■
Never carry more people than the number of seats in the vehicle.
■
Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened » page 186, Transporting children safely with a
suitable restraint system.
WARNING (Continued)■ The front seats and head restraints must be adjusted to match the body
size at all times and the seat belt must always be fastened properly to provide
the most effective levels of protection to the passengers.■
Do not carry any objects on the front passenger seat except objects de-
signed for this purpose (e.g. child seats) – risk of accident!
WARNINGInformation for the driver■Only adjust the driver's seat when the vehicle is stationary – risk of accident!■
Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel, and a dis-
tance of at least 10 cm between the legs and the dash panel at the height of
the knee airbag. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the
airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
■
Ensure that there are no objects in the driver's footwell, as these may get
caught in the pedal apparatus when driving or braking » page 139. You would
then no longer be able to operate the clutch, brake or accelerate.
WARNINGInformation for the front seat passenger■Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the dash panel. Not maintaining this
minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to proper-
ly protect you - hazard!■
Always keep your feet in the footwell when the car is being driven - never
place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the surfaces of the seats. You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes nec-
essary to apply the brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is de-
ployed, you may suffer fatal injuries when adopting an incorrect seated posi- tion!
Note
■ After a certain time, play can develop within the adjustment mechanism of the
backrest angle.■
For safety reasons, it is not possible to store the seat position in the electric
seat memory and remote control key memory if the inclination angle of the seat
backrest is more than 102° in relation to the seat cushion.
■
Each time you store the position of the electrically adjustable driver's seat and
exterior mirrors, the existing setting is deleted.
