Driving and auxiliary systems

Running in

The more carefully you will treat the engine at the beginning of its use, the more you will be satisfied with its work subsequently. The first 1500 km avoid big loading (movement at completely open butterfly valve) and high number of turns of the engine (no more than 2/3 maximum speeds of movement on the chosen transfer).

In due time switch transfers!

By pressing a pedal of an accelerator it is desirable not to overcome a point resistance ("kik-Down").

Do not make switching on lower transfer by the selector lever for the purpose of braking.

Ranges of switching 3, 2 or 1 choose only at low speeds (on mountain passes).

After the first 1500 km speed and number of turns it is possible gradually increase to limiting values.

System of a call of the help - TeleAid

(Telematic Alarm Identification on Demand - is applied in Germany).

The system of a call of the help allows a signal transmission of a call of the help to one of control offices of ambulance within the territory of the Federal Republic Germany.

The signal transmission of a call of the help is made automatically after failure. At emergence of a dangerous situation you can activate system of a call of the help manually. All is thus transferred necessary for an emergency assessment information, as, for example, data on a car site (orientations of GPS defined by satellite system, and also sensors of a way of ABS system) and concerning weights of failure.

For a short time after operation of system of a call of the help speech connection between control office of ambulance and passengers of the damaged car is automatically established. If somebody from passengers in a condition to speak, it can transfer to the staff of control office of ambulance more detailed data on failure consequences. Phone is in a mode of loud-speaking communication.

The system of a call of the help is put at disposal at:

· existence of the valid contract with services offering the relevant services (telephone service and service of reception of call signals of the help).
· existence of the valid contract with services offering the relevant services (telephone service and service of reception of call signals about the help).
· existence of the valid telephone card,
· access to the corresponding radiotelephone network (access is possible only within Germany on the basis of the D1 and D2 networks), providing transfer of short messages through service SMS (Short Message Service),
· possibilities of reception of signals of satellite system of orientation of GPS,
· operational readiness of system of a call of the help.

 The first input of system of a call of the help in operation should be made only at Mercedes-Benz station.

At a povorachivaniye of an electronic key in the ignition lock in situation 1 or 2 the system of a call of the help is in operational readiness.

The control light-emitting diode on the button of system of a call of the help lights up approximately for 5 seconds.

At a povorachivaniye of an electronic key in the ignition lock in situation 0 or at a key vynimaniye the system of a call of the help is not any more in operational readiness.

Personal identification code of phone (PIN)

At measurement of a personal identification code of phone (PIN) (address to the Operation manual on phone) on the display of phone «Export PIN Speichern» message (Enter the PIN code into memory) is displayed.

Confirm the message, having pressed the OK button — on the display of phone «Gespeichert» message (It is entered into memory) is quickly displayed.

The personal identification PIN code is entered into memory of the control unit of system of a call of the help.

If this process does not prove to be true in OK button pressing, and interrupts the team "S", on phone display quickly there is a message «Nicht gesp.» (It is not written down in memory). The system of a call of the help in this case is not ready to work, the control light-emitting diode on the button of system of a call of the help constantly burns.

When using a telephone card of the D1 network and the disconnected function of inquiry of the PIN code nevertheless it is necessary to enter the PIN code into memory of the control unit of system of a call of the help.

If the control light-emitting diode on the button of system of a call of the help does not die away or lights up during movement, malfunction takes place.

If the control light-emitting diode dies away after a while, short-term malfunction of system took place.

 If the control light-emitting diode does not die away, it is possible that the system of a call of the help partially or completely is not efficient.

As soon as possible to address on Mercedes-Benz station for check of system of a call of the help.

Signal transmission of a call of the help

Manually:

Slightly press a cover-1-— the cover opens.

Slightly press the button of system of a call of the help-2-.

The control light-emitting diode on the button of system of a call of the help-2 - blinks.

Receipt of a call signal of the help for further transfer to control office of ambulance proves to be true the message through loud-speaking installation. To wait speech communication with control office of ambulance.

After the termination of a call of the help close a cover-1-.

Automatically:

· at safety cushion operation;
· at strong blow on the car behind;
· when capsizing car.

The control light-emitting diode on the button of system of a call of the help-2 - blinks.

Receipt of a call signal of the help for further transfer to control office of ambulance proves to be true the message through loud-speaking installation. To wait speech communication with control office of ambulance.

 The control light-emitting diode blinks until the help call will terminate.

After a signal transmission of a call of the help phone in some seconds is switched to a mode of loud-speaking communication before the completion of exchange of information between control office of ambulance and the passenger of the car.

At this time it is impossible to have another stories by phone.

At the lowered tension (for example, at the discharged storage battery) the signal transmission of a call of the help through system of a call of the help is impossible.

After a signal transmission of a call of the help:

If the control light-emitting diode on the button of system of a call of the help constantly burns, and speech communication was not established before, the signal transmission of a call of the help was not successful (for example, there is no radiotelephone network).

In that case saving actions are necessary for organizing own forces.

 The system of a call of the help is public. Any abuse of the button of system of a call of the help therefore is punishable.

Electronic lock of ignition

There is a danger of failure!

Take out an electronic key from the ignition lock even at a short-term exit from the car.

Electric adjustment of provision of a seat is also possible at one open door. Therefore do not leave children in the car without supervision.

Models with KEYLESS-GO system:

Consider notes on simultaneous use of an electronic key and a smart card.

0 Electronic key can be taken out only in situation 0 in case the lever of the AT selector is in the situation "R".

For mechanical blocking of the car the lever of the AT selector is blocked in the situation "R" at position 0 or 1 of the lock of ignition and after a vynimaniye of an electronic key.

1 Provision of a radio receiver

The majority of consumers of the electric power can be included. Information is provided in separate technical specifications.

2 Provision of movement

 At insertion of the main electronic key in the ignition lock the mechanical key should not be pushed forward. It can lead to damage of the lock of ignition. (A mechanical key — address to the Section Locks, keys and locks. Smart card. Uniform lock).


Do not seal up a window for infra-red beams on the end of an electronic key and do not allow its pollution, operability of the electronic lock of ignition otherwise cannot be guaranteed.

If the electronic key a long time remained in the ignition lock in situation 0, its povorachivaniye is not possible any more. For providing a povorachivaniye take out and again insert it.

If the electronic key in the lock of ignition does not give in to a povorachivaniye, the lever of the AT selector remains blocked in the situation "R". The considerable discharge of the storage battery of the car can be the reason. (A charging of the storage battery - Head Routine maintenance, or engine Start from the auxiliary power supply).

Then an electronic key again insert into the lock of ignition and turn it. If the lock of ignition is in situation 2, the lever of the selector gives in to moving and remains free.

At long parking of the car it is necessary to take out an electronic key in order to avoid a discharge of the storage battery.

Function of the lock of ignition of KEYLESS-G0

There is a danger of failure!

Even at a short-term exit from the car a smart card take with itself.

If the engine after long process of start was not started, to address on Mercedes-Benz station.

 Too long attempts of start lead to a discharge of the storage battery.

Emergency start of the engine by towage is impossible.

Switching off

At a car stop the lever of the AT selector transfer to the situation "R" or "N".

The start/switching off button on the lever of the selector press until the engine will be switched off. At the closed door of the driver switching of electric equipment of the car in the provision of a radio receiver (corresponds to the provision of 1 electronic key in the ignition lock) is made, and at the opened — in zero situation (there corresponds to situation «An electronic key will take out from the ignition lock»).

If after engine switching off the lever of the selector was not transferred to the situation "R", when opening a door of the driver the signal is distributed, and on the multiinformation display «SELECT LEVER IN P» indication (the LEVER of the SELECTOR to TRANSFER TO the SITUATION "R") joins.

Transfer the AT selector lever to the situation "R".

Automatic transmission

Separate transfers join automatically depending on:

· positions of the lever of the AT selector with ranges of switching 4, 3, 2 and 1
· the chosen program of switching (W/S)
· provision of a pedal of an accelerator
· speeds of movement.

The gear shifting mechanism automatically adapts for individual style of driving of the driver by shift of points of gear shifting.

Shift of points of gear shifting represents the continuous process which is constantly considering an instant operational condition and a condition of movement, and also desire of the driver.

Automatic transmission reacts to the changed service conditions adapted by the gear shifting program.

Switching of the lever of the AT selector possibly in situation 2 locks of ignition. For moving of the lever of the AT selector it is necessary to squeeze out a working brake of the situation "R" in addition.

Troganiye from a place

Press a working brake for release of the lever of the AT selector. Release the parking brake.

Switch the AT selector lever at operation of the engine idling in one of movement provisions. Wait complete inclusion of transfer, in particular at the cold engine. It proves to be true easy breakthrough.

Release a working brake and press an accelerator pedal.

Switchings on higher transfer after start of the cold engine

After start of the cold engine gear shifting is made at higher number of turns of the engine, than switching at working temperature.

Thus, the catalyst reaches the working temperature earlier.

Provision of a pedal of an accelerator

Easy pressing an accelerator pedal = earlier switching on higher transfer.

"Kik-Down" — pressing of a pedal of an accelerator with overcoming of a point of resistance the maximum acceleration, return switching on the lowest possible transfer.

At achievement of desirable speed release an accelerator pedal — again there is a switching on higher transfer.

Car stop

Leave the selector lever in the provision of movement "D" or "R" and by means of the working or parking brake insure the car from advance, and on lifting — from an otkatyvaniye back.

Maneuvering

When maneuvering in limited space regulate speed of movement by the dosed-out otpuskaniye of a working brake. Press an accelerator pedal only slightly, do not play it.

Parkovaniye

There is a danger of a travmirovaniye!

At work on the car at the working engine press a pedal of the parking brake and transfer the AT selector lever to the situation "R".

· Press a pedal of the parking brake.
· Transfer the AT selector lever to the situation "R".
· On steep slopes or descents turn forward wheels to an onboard stone of the sidewalk, watch to damaging the tire.

Positions of the lever of the AT selector

Actual position of the lever of the selector of automatic transmission is displayed on the display to a control panel.

P Locking at a parking

Additional protection of the car at a parkovaniye. Include only after a full stop of the car.

The electronic key can be taken out only in the position "R" of the lever of the AT selector.


At the taken-out electronic key the lever of the AT selector is blocked in the situation "R".

R backing Transfer

Include only after a full stop of the car.

N Neutral situation

There is no torque transfer from the engine to driving wheels. At the released brakes the car can freely move (pushing, towage).

During movement do not switch in the situation "N", it can lead to transmission damage.

At the disconnected or faulty function of EPS system:

Only at threat of drift of the car switching in the situation "N" (for example, in the winter on the slippery road) is authorized.

On hand all 5 transfers of a forward course the Mode is provided by D for all normal traffic conditions forward.

Switching ranges for special service conditions

In position "D" of the lever of the AT selector switching ranges for special service conditions get out in easy pressing or in pressing of the lever of the selector to the left or to the right.

The included range of switching is displayed on a control panel.

Slightly press the selector lever in the direction —:

Switching each time on one range in sequence of D, 4, 3, 2, 1 is made.

The lever of the selector press in the direction — and hold it pressed:

The range of switching changes on AT included at present transfer. If movement occurs already on the highest possible transfer of actually included range of switching, switching is made only on the following lower range of switching.

If moving of the lever of the selector in the direction — is made at too high speed, switching on lower transfer is not made. Thus excess of admissible number of turns of the engine is prevented.


Slightly press the selector lever in the direction +:

Switching from the range of switching included at present on the following higher range of switching is made.

The lever of the selector press in the direction + and hold it pressed:

Switching from the range of switching included at present directly in situation "D" is made.

If transmission is in a range of switching of "D", it is possible to make switching on higher transfer on one step, having slightly pressed the selector lever in the direction +.

There is a danger of drift!

At the slippery road do not switch to lower transfer for the purpose of braking. Tires of driving wheels can lose coupling with the road.

Switching ranges:

4 Switching only before the 4th transfer.
3 Switching only before the 3rd transfer.

In this situation it is possible to use braking operation of the engine.

2 Switching only before the 2nd transfer.

The mode is provided for movement on abrupt passes, in mountains, under trying conditions operation, and also as brake situation on especially abrupt descents.

1 1st transfer.

Brake situation for movement on especially abrupt descents and long passes.

Switch of programs

The pressing of the W/S-1-switch makes switching between the W and S programs.

The chosen program is displayed on a control panel.

«S» Standard mode

The mode is provided for all normal traffic conditions.

«W» Winter mode

Troganiye from a place forward and occurs on the 2nd transfer back.

Switching on higher and lower transfer is made by strong pressing of a pedal of an accelerator on lower speeds of movement and lower number of turns of the engine, than in the program "S".

At the provision "kik-Down" of a pedal of an accelerator switching on higher and lower transfer is made as in the program "S".

Emergency operation

If during movement transmission any more does not give in to switching and keeps and under the changed service conditions the included transfer, transmission is in emergency operation.

For possibility of further movement the 2nd transfer or the 2nd transfer of a backing can be included. Sequence of actions thus the following:

Stop the car.

Transfer the AT selector lever to the situation "R".

Electronic key in the lock of ignition turn in situation 0.

Wait not Maine for 10 seconds.

Start the engine.

The lever of the AT selector transfer to situation "D":

the 2nd transfer is included.

The lever of the AT selector transfer to the situation "R":

Immediately to address on Mercedes-Benz station for transmission check.

Parking brake

There is a danger of failure!

Do not leave children in the car without supervision. They can release the parking brake.

Raising of the parking brake: strongly press a pedal of the parking brake. The parking brake will tighten.

On a control panel at the tightened parking brake the control lamp of brake system lights up.

Otpuskaniye: pull the handle on itself. The parking brake is released instantly — the car can get under way at once from a place.

The control lamp of brake system on a control panel dies away at the working engine.

At a troganiye from a place with the tightened parking brake the warning sound signal is distributed — release the parking brake.

If the control lamp of brake system continues to burn at the released parking brake and at the working engine — address to the section «Control lamp of brake system» (The section Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions).

Recommendations about driving

Management pedals

There is a danger of failure!

At all do not limit freedom of management to pedals. In space for feet of the driver there should be no subjects. When using rugs for feet or carpets it is necessary to provide a sufficient empty seat and their reliable fixing.

Movement and parkovaniye

Fire danger!

During movement or at a parkovaniye watch that elements of system of release of OG did not adjoin to an inflammable material.

Engine warming up to working temperature

After a troganiye from a place quickly warm up the engine to working temperature. Only after that it is possible to lead up its loading to full capacity.

Troganiye from a place

Troganiye from a place on slippery soil:

Surely avoid a long prokruchivaniye of one of driving wheels. It can lead to transmission damage.

Steering

There is a danger of failure!

At the idle engine the hydraulic booster of a steering does not act. Thus for management it is required the bigger effort is considerable.

Brakes

There is a danger of failure!

The hydraulic booster of a working brake works only at the switched-on engine. It is necessary to consider that at the idle engine for braking it is required the bigger effort is considerable.

On long and abrupt descents it is recommended to unload brakes transmission switching on lower transfer — include ranges of switching 3, 2 or 1.

Thus the overheat of brakes is prevented and wear of brake slips decreases.

After raised load of brakes it is recommended to put the car on parking not at once, and at first some time to continue movement quicker to cool brakes with a counter flow of air.

If you long time moved to a heavy rain without braking, can happen that at the first braking there will be some delay, and you should press a brake with bigger force. Therefore observe big, than usually, a distance to cars moving ahead of you.

In order to avoid corrosion on brake disks before putting the car on parking after movement on the wet road, especially if it was strewed with defreezing means, strongly press a brake to dry brake disks by heating.

Working brake

At rather low operational loads of brake system from time to time it is necessary to be convinced of its efficiency by short strong braking on higher speed. Thereby improvement of coupling of brake slips is reached.

Watch that as a result of braking other participants of movement were not endangered!

If the control lamp of brake system lights up at the released parking brake — address to the Section Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions.

Establish only allowed by us to operation brake slips!

Installation of the brake slips not allowed by us can negatively affect process of braking of the car, considerably reducing safety.

Shutdown of supply of fuel in a mode of compulsory idling

In a mode of compulsory idling supply of fuel interrupts, if the pedal of an accelerator is completely released.

Violations of operation of the engine

At unstable operation of the engine (for example, in case of ignition admissions) not burned down fuel can get to the catalyst and cause in it thermal damages.

In case of admissions of ignition, only short-term operation of the engine is allowed at small loading (on small turns).

It is necessary to eliminate malfunction immediately at Mercedes-Benz station.

Hydroplaning

Depending on a water level on the road, despite sufficient height of drawing of a protector of tires and low speed of movement, there can be an effect of hydroplaning. At a rain it is necessary to brake carefully and to avoid movement in a track.

Coupling of tires with the road

While on the dry road the car at a certain speed completely gives in to management, at movement on the wet or ice-covered road speed of movement is necessary for reducing respectively to reach the same degree of traffic safety.

Already at the temperatures close to a freezing point, it is necessary to watch closely a paving condition especially.

If on the road ice was formed (for example, owing to a fog), when braking on ice the thin water film considerably reducing factor of coupling of tires with the road is quickly formed. At such weather observe extra care.

During the winter period it is recommended to use type M tires + S (with a protector for movement on dirty and snow-covered roads). At ice and on slippery snow they can reduce a brake way in comparison with tires with summer drawing of a protector.

Tires

There is a danger of failure!

Surely observe the ordered pressure of air in tires.

It is especially important concerning the tires maintained in extreme modes, for example, at high speed, a full load and at high temperatures of external air.

Do not allow strong wear of tires. At height of drawing of a protector less than 3 mm the factor of coupling of tires with the wet road sharply decreases.

The factor of coupling of tires with the road considerably changes depending on weather or a paving condition.

Trips abroad

The branched-out network of Mercedes-Benz stations is available and abroad. The corresponding lists of Mercedes-Benz stations it is possible to request at any Mercedes-Benz station.

In some countries only nizkooktanovy grades of fuel are on sale.

In the countries with the order of movement different from an order of movement in the country of the admission of the car to operation, it is necessary to switch headlights to a symmetric passing beam or partially to stick them (The section Replacement of filament lamps).

Thus dazzle of counter cars decreases.

Operation during the winter period

Before approach of winter it is recommended to address on Mercedes-Benz station for the purpose of preparation of the car for operation during the winter period.

Replace impellent oil: if the oil which has not been allowed to application for operation during the winter period is filled.

Check concentration of antifreeze with anticorrosive additives.

Stekloomyvatel and faroochistitel:

Add to water a concentrate of stekloomyvayushchy means of MB firm (address to Specifications of Head Routine maintenance).

Control of the storage battery:

At decrease in temperature the capacity of the storage battery falls. Only well charged storage battery provides reliable start of the engine and at low temperatures.

Tires:

In the winter we recommend to apply on all wheels of the tire M + S (with a protector to movement on dirty and snow-covered roads). Thus it is necessary to observe the maximum speed of movement for tires M + S, and also the maximum speed ordered by the legislation!

At car operation during the winter period the maximum effect from electronic antiprobuksovochny system (ESP) is reached only at use of tires M + S and, if necessary, antisliding chains.

Recommendations about driving in ice

The most important rule at movement in ice:

Move carefully, avoid sharp acceleration, braking and maneuvering at management.

At threat of drift of the car or in case at low speed of movement the car cannot be stopped, transfer the selector lever automatic transmission to the situation "N".

By means of a wheel try to keep the car under control.

At movement on deep snow we recommend to raise a road gleam of the car (subsection «Regulation of a road gleam»).

Defreezing means applied on roads can make negative impact on brake action. Therefore for achievement of habitual brake action the bigger effort can be demanded.

In this regard we recommend at long movement on the roads covered with defreezing means repeatedly to press a brake pedal. By it the brake action reduced by defreezing means can be again normalized.

Watch that as a result of braking not to endanger other participants of movement!

If after movement on the roads strewed with defreezing means the car was put on parking, before continuation of a trip it is necessary to check at once, whenever possible, brake action, observing due care. At appreciable decrease in efficiency of braking it is possible to restore it by means of repeated pressing a brake pedal.

Antisliding chains

Apply only the chains of antisliding tested and allowed by us.

The reference any Mercedes-Benz station on this matter will give.

Models with tires 245/45 R18

For simplification of installation of chains of antisliding it is recommended to increase a road gleam of the car (lower in this Section).

Installation of chains of antisliding is authorized only on certain combinations of wheels and tires. (More detailed instructions are provided in Specifications).

Impose antisliding chains only on back wheels (the leading bridge). Observe the instruction of the manufacturer on installation.

The maximum speed of movement (50 km/h) is allowed only on snow.

On not snow-covered road of a chain of antisliding it is necessary to remove at once whenever possible. (Recommendations about driving are provided in ice above).

At application of chains of antisliding function of antiprobuksovochny system ESP can be disconnected (see below).

Trailer towage

There is a danger of a travmirovaniye and failure!

At a hitch and расцепке the trailer observe the maximum care and care.

When giving car back between the car and the trailer there should not be people!

Trailers with inertial brake system should not be disconnected in a condition наката.

Owing to the wrong connection of the trailer on the car tractor there is a danger of a separation of the trailer.

Do not exceed the maximum basic loading, the allowed mass of towed cargo and allowed load of the back bridge of the car.

It is necessary to observe strictly the instruction on traction coupling device installation with a demountable spherical head.

At operation with the trailer it is necessary to consider that dynamic properties thus considerably differ from dynamic properties of the car without the trailer.

The structure with the trailer is heavier, has limited ability to dispersal and overcoming of liftings and longer brake way. It reacts to rushes of a lateral wind, etc. more sensitively and demands more careful driving.

Fuel consumption at car operation with the trailer naturally raises.

When loading the trailer watch that the full standard mass of the trailer and the allowed mass of cargo towed by the car together with (Specification) traction coupling device were not exceeded.

Allowed values are specified in passports of the car and on factory plates of the traction coupling device and the trailer.

The lowest value is valid.

Besides, the permissible load дышла the trailer on a spherical head of the traction coupling device should not be exceeded.

The maximum basic loading is specified in Specifications or on the pasted plate. It should not exceed the value specified on factory plates of the traction coupling device and the trailer.

We recommend to use the maximum basic loading on дышло the trailer not less, however, 50 kg.

According to basic loading it is necessary to reduce mass of cargo in the car in order to avoid excess of allowed load of the back bridge.

It is recommended not to exceed the maximum speed of 80 km/h, including and in the countries in which higher speed is authorized.

It is necessary to avoid, whenever possible, sharp braking and at first slightly to brake for the purpose of a trailer nakatyvaniye on the tractor. Then smoothly increase brake effort.

If the trailer starts to wag, it is necessary to reduce speed of movement, not to turn a wheel against drift, and in case of need, brake. Do not try to "extend" at all structure increase of speed of movement.

The values of ability of overcoming of lifting given in Specifications at a troganiye from a place belong to a sea level. At movement in mountains it is necessary to remember that with increase in height engine capacity and, therefore, ability of overcoming of lifting decreases at a troganiye from a place.

Trailers with inertial brake system should not be disconnected in a condition наката. Owing to reverse motion of inertial brake system possibly bumper damage.

Tempostat

Tempostat allows you unfatiguing management as it automatically holds the set speed by active pressing and an otpuskaniye of a pedal of an accelerator.

By the switch lever темпостата on a column of a steering can be chosen and activated темпостат or the variable limiter of speed.

Indication of the chosen system, темпостата or the variable limiter of speed, is made by the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата:

· Tempostat:

the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата does not burn.

· Variable limiter of speed: the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата burns — address to subsection «Variable limiter of speed».

There is a danger of failure!

Responsibility for speed of movement is born always by the driver. Tempostat is only supportive application for the driver.

Switching off:

The switch lever темпостата quickly press in the direction-3-or-5-, speed remains in memory.

By pressing in the direction-5-the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата lights up — the variable limiter of speed is chosen.

Tempostat also is switched off by pressing a brake pedal.

If segments on a speedometer start to blink, темпостат is switched off, for example, if the AT selector lever during movement is switched in the situation "N" or when hydroplaning.

On liftings or descents темпостат reduces a deviation from the speed of movement chosen by the driver by transmission switching by lower transfer. Despite it, it is possible that it will not be possible to keep the set speed.

After overcoming of such site the remembered speed and transmission is automatically established comes back to former situation.

If speed of movement of the car decreases in pressing of the lever of the switch темпостата in the direction-2-, at insufficient decrease in speed transmission switching on the 4th or 3rd transfer is made.

For short-term increase of speed of movement (e.g., for overtaking) — press an accelerator pedal. If the pedal of an accelerator is again released, the remembered speed is again established.

Use темпостат only if road conditions allow uniform speed of movement.

On the multiinformation display indication «CRUISE CONTROL - - -» (ТЕМПОСТАТ---) joins in attempt to enter in memory speed below 40 km/h or by a call from memory of not written down speed — темпостат remains included.

At malfunction темпостата — address to the Section Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions.

System of maintenance of a safe distance of "Distronic" (DTR)

If ahead of the going car is not present, the Distronic (DTR) system functions as usual темпостат. She allows you unfatiguing management as it automatically holds the set speed.

If the sensor of a distance identifies the car ahead going on slower speed, speed of your car decreases and movement behind ahead going car proceeds with observance of the set distance.

By the switch lever темпостата on a column of a steering the Distronic (DTR) system or the variable limiter speeds (Speedtronic system) can be chosen and activated.

Indication of the chosen system, Distronic system or the variable limiter of speed, is made by the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата:

Distronic system:

The LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата does not burn.

Variable limiter of speed: the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата burns (address to the section the Variable limiter of speed).

There is a danger of failure!

Responsibility for speed of movement and for observance of a necessary distance to ahead going car always is born by the driver. The Distronic system is only supportive application.

The variable limiter of speed is chosen, if the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата burns. (The variable limiter of speed is described below).

Inclusion

There is a danger of failure!

Function of Distronic system does not adapt automatically for road conditions owing to what it is impossible to use Distronic system, for example, at ice.

Record in memory of any speed of movement approximately from 40 km/h to 160 km/h is possible:

Switching from the variable limiter of speed on Distronic system.

The LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата should be switched off. If necessary the switch lever темпостата press in the direction-5-.

Gain desirable speed of movement, having pressed an accelerator pedal.

Slightly press the switch lever темпостата in the direction-1-or-2-. Speed is written down in memory.

The speed entered into memory is displayed on the multiinformation display, and on a speedometer one light up or two segments in a range of the speed written down in memory.

Release an accelerator pedal.

If the switch lever темпостата keeps pressed in the direction-1-or-2-, speed of movement raises or decreases steps on 10 km/h until the switch lever темпостата will not be released.

Exact regulation by steps on 1 km/h:

Increase of the chosen speed — the switch lever темпостата slightly press in the direction-4-.

If the switch lever темпостата keeps pressed in the direction-4-, speed of movement raises steps on 1 km/h until the switch lever темпостата will not be released.

Call of the entered speed from memory:

Since speed of movement about 40 km/h to about 160 km/h the call of the entered speed from memory is possible.

Slightly press the switch lever in the direction-4-.

The speed entered into memory is displayed on the multiinformation display, and on a speedometer one light up or two segments in a range of the written-down speed.

The remembered speed of movement choose only if the driver well remembers it and it again intends to cause from memory.

At a povorachivaniye of an electronic key in the ignition lock in situation 1 or 0 the remembered speed is dumped.

If the electronic antiprobuksovochny system (ESP) is switched off, inclusion of Distronic (DTR) system is impossible.

At inclusion of function of antiprobuksovochny system ESP the Distronic system is switched off — the yellow precautionary alarm lamp on a speedometer lights up. The sound signal is in addition distributed.

Void attempts of inclusion:

In void attempt of inclusion on the multiinformation display there is an indication «-».

Void attempts of inclusion, for example, are:

· Inclusion outside of a range of speed approximately from 40 to 160 km/h.
· Inclusion at position of the lever of the selector of automatic transmission of "R", «R» or «N».
· Inclusion during car braking by the driver.
· Inclusion by short pressing of the lever of the switch темпостата in the direction-4-though speed of movement is not entered into memory.

At malfunction or defect of Distronic system be guided by subsection Section Distronic (DTR) System Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions.

Switching off

The switch lever темпостата quickly press in the direction-3-or-5-, speed remains in memory.

By pressing in the direction-5-the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата lights up — the variable limiter of speed is chosen.

The Distronic system is switched off also:

· by pressing a brake pedal;
· at decrease in speed of movement of the car 40 km/h because of ahead going car are lower;
· when switching the lever of the AT selector in the situation "N";
· at inclusion of function of electronic antiprobuksovochny system ESP;
· at car acceleration till speed of movement 160 km are higher.

Driving

At a povorachivaniye of an electronic key in the ignition lock in situation 2 on a speedometer the precautionary alarm lamp of Distronic system lights up. It dies away at the working engine.

The Distronic system is switched off:

Distance measurement to ahead going car, proceeds, even if the Distronic system is switched off.

There is a danger of failure!

If the precautionary alarm lamp of Distronic system on a speedometer lights up during movement, means, the distance to ahead going car is too small. The double sound signal if there is a danger of collision is in addition distributed.

It is necessary to increase a distance to ahead going car.

Non-compliance with a distance to ahead going car increases risk of failure.

The Distronic system is included:

If the sensor of a distance identifies ahead the car moving on lower speed, speed of your car decreases and movement proceeds with observance of the set distance to ahead going car.

On a speedometer segments from speed ahead of the going car till the speed of movement chosen by the driver light up.

There is a danger of a travmirovaniye!

The Distronic system makes an automatic pritormazhivaniye for achievement of the set distance to ahead going car or preservation of speed of movement. The pedal of a brake is thus drawn.

The foot should not be on a brake pedal — there is a danger of a jamming of a foot.

At suddenly arisen, more slowly a moving obstacle (for example, at strip change by ahead going car) the Distronic system makes delay to 2 m/s2 that there correspond about 20 % of the greatest possible delay of the car.

There is a danger of failure!

If the precautionary alarm lamp of Distronic system on a speedometer lights up during movement and the double sound signal is distributed, stronger delay is necessary.

For decrease in speed of the car in addition use a working brake.

On liftings or descents the Distronic system reduces a deviation from the speed of movement chosen by the driver by braking and transmission switching by lower transfer. After overcoming of such site transmission comes back to former situation.

For short-term increase of speed of movement (e.g., for overtaking) — press an accelerator pedal. If the pedal of an accelerator is again released, the remembered speed is again established.

If owing to distance regulation by Distronic system speed of movement decreases to ahead going car below 40 km/h, or at speed of movement above 160 km/h the Distronic system is switched off. The sound signal is in addition distributed.

Recommendations about driving by means of Distronic system

There is a danger of failure!

Without having identified before itself an obstacle (for example, moving ahead of the car) the Distronic system makes adjustment before achievement of the speed chosen by the driver. Thereof:

At evolution from the left strip in right your car will continue to overtake on the right the cars moving on the left strip,
on a strip conducting to congress with the highway, your car will continue acceleration till the speed chosen by the driver.

Below the description of some situations of the movement influencing functioning of Distronic system is given.

The system is provided first of all for application on highways or the federal highways equated to them. System application in the cities is not recommended.


At movement on turns, when calling on turn or an exit from it the identification moving ahead of cars can be complicated.

The movement displaced in relation to the going in advance car can complicate its identification.

Cars which are reconstructed on a small distance on your strip, can be identified only after complete change of a strip.

1 Switch — for switching off of a warning sound signal of a distance to ahead going car
2 Regulator of the set distance

If the Distronic system is not included, the sound signal can be switched off by means of the switch-1-.

Switching off of a sound signal:

The switch-1-press above a symbol. The control light-emitting diode on the switch lights up.

Inclusion of a sound signal:

Press the switch below-1-. The control light-emitting diode on the switch dies away.

Installation of the set distance to moving ahead of the car:

Regulator-2-turn in the MIN direction or the MOVE.

The range of installation of an interval on time makes from 1.0 to 2.0 seconds.

Interval installation on time, for example, in 1.8 seconds, corresponds to a distance of a half of speed of movement in meters.

Indication on the multiinformation display

1 Distronic System is switched off. Are displayed the valid distance-5-and the set distance-6-to moving ahead of the car-4-
2 Distronic System joins, approximately for 3 seconds there is an indication of the established speed of movement
3 Distronic System is included.
4 the car Moving ahead. Appears only if the car moving ahead was identified.
5 Valid distance to moving ahead of the car
6 Set distance to moving ahead of the car
7 your car

Call of indication of Distronic system:

The button on a multipurpose steering wheel press several times in a row until there will be an indication (1 or 3).

Speedtronic system

Consists of variable and constant limiters of speed.

The variable limiter of speed helps you not to exceed at the expense of regulation of number of turns of the engine the set speed, for example, at restrictions of speed.

By means of the constant limiter of speed you can limit the maximum speed at car operation with tires with winter drawing of a protector.

By the switch lever темпостата on a column of a steering the Distronic (DTR) system or the variable limiter of speed can be chosen and activated темпостат.

Indication of the chosen system, темпостата, Distronic (DTR) system or the variable limiter of speed, is made by the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата:

Variable limiter of speed: the LIM indicator on the lever of the switch burns.

Tempostat or Distronic (DTR) system: the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата does not burn. (Tempostat and Distronic system are considered above in this Section).

There is a danger of failure!

Responsibility for speed of movement is born always by the driver. The Speedtronic system is only supportive application for the driver.

Variable limiter of speed

1 Activation of the variable limiter of speed — slightly press the switch lever темпостата.

Increase of limited speed — the switch lever темпостата hold the pressed.

2 Activation of the variable limiter of speed — slightly press the switch lever темпостата.

Decrease in limited speed — the switch lever темпостата hold the pressed.

3 Switching off of the variable limiter of speed — slightly press the switch lever темпостата.

The established restriction of speed remains in memory.

4 Call of limited speed from memory — slightly press the switch lever темпостата.

Exact regulation, increase of limited speed by steps on 1 km/h — quickly press the switch lever темпостата.

5 Switching between tempostaty and the variable limiter of speed — press the switch lever темпостата.

The variable limiter of speed is chosen, if the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата burns.

Tempostat or the Distronic (DTR) system is chosen, if the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата does not burn. (Tempostat and Distronic system are considered above in this Section).

There is a danger of failure!

If the variable limiter of speed is activated, on a speedometer segments from the scale beginning before the established restriction of speed are shone:

The established speed can be exceeded in this case only at the provision of a pedal of an accelerator "kik-Down".

Switching off of the limiter of speed:

Quickly press the switch lever in the direction-3-or-5-.

On a speedometer all segments are shone.

By pressing in the direction-5-the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата dies away also.

The limiter of speed деактивируется as well in case in the provision of a pedal of an accelerator "kik-Down" speed of movement differs from in advance established speed no more, than on 20 km/h.

Use the limiter of speed only if need of sudden acceleration till the speed exceeding the in advance established is not expected.

At change of the driver follows for safety reasons surely inform it about the established speed.

Unlike темпостата or Distronic systems the variable limiter of speed is not switched off by pressing of a brake pedal.

There is a danger of a travmirovaniye!

Models with Distronic system:

The Distronic system makes an automatic pritormazhivaniye for prevention of excess of the established restriction of speed. The pedal of a brake is thus drawn.

The foot should not be under a brake pedal — there is a danger of a jamming of a foot.

Switching/activation

Start the engine.

At the working engine probably restriction of any speed is higher than 30 km/h at cars with Distronic system.

Switching with темпостата or Distronic systems on the variable limiter of speed.

The LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата should burn. If necessary the switch lever темпостата press in the direction-5-.

Slightly press the switch lever in the direction (1, 2 or 4).

The variable limiter of speed is activated.

The established limited speed is displayed on the multiinformation display, and on a speedometer segments from the scale beginning before the established restriction of speed light up.

Direction-1-:

Actual speed of movement is remembered as new restriction of speed; the curve to the following higher ten is thus made. The further easy pressing or a continence of the lever makes increase of the established limited speed.

Direction-2-:

Actual speed of movement is remembered as new restriction of speed; the curve to the following lower ten is thus made. The further easy pressing or a continence of the lever makes decrease in the established limited speed.

Direction-4-:

The remembered last restriction of speed is activated, if speed of movement exceeds the remembered restriction of speed no more, than on 30 km/h.

The further easy pressing or continence of the lever makes increase of the established restriction of speed by steps on 1 km/h.

Deaktivirovaniye

Slightly press the switch lever in the direction-3-or press in the direction-5-.

On a speedometer all segments are shone.

By pressing in the direction-5-the LIM indicator on the switch lever темпостата dies away.

The limiter of speed деактивируется as well in case in the provision of a pedal of an accelerator "kik-Down" speed of movement differs from in advance established speed no more, than on 20 km/h.

Depending on a design insignificant deviations of indications of a speedometer from the speed established by means of the limiter are possible.

At malfunction of the variable limiter of speed — address to the subsection "Speedtronic", Undressed Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions).

Models without Distronic (DTR) system

If the limiter of speed cannot hold the set speed (for example, on descents), is distributed the sound signal and on the multiinformation display within about 5 seconds blinks «LIMIT EXCEEDED» indication (RESTRICTION is EXCEEDED).

Segments on a speedometer blink until the established restriction of speed will be again reached.

Constant limiter of speed

At car operation with tires with winter drawing of a protector the constant limiter of speed can be established in the system menu «Individual installation» (Undressed the Multipurpose steering wheel, the multiinformation display) for speed of 210 km/h.

If the constant limiter of speed is switched on, on a speedometer segments from the zero indication of a scale till speed of 210 km/h are shone.

Shortly before achievement of the established restriction of speed its value is displayed on the multiinformation display.

At malfunction of the constant limiter of speed — address to the Section subsection "Speedtronic" Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions).

Amplifier of emergency braking (BAS) (Brake Assist)

There is a danger of failure!

Movement on the exceeded speed, especially on turns, hydroplaning and non-compliance with a distance to ahead going cars increase risk of failure. This risk cannot be lowered by means of BAS.

BAS helps you to reduce a brake way when braking in dangerous road situations and allows to use advantages of anti-blocking system (ABS) completely.

By very fast pressing of a brake pedal of BAS provides the maximum strengthening of a brake drive. For achievement whenever possible the minimum brake way do not reduce effort of a foot, and continue to press a brake pedal.

At an otpuskaniye of a pedal of a brake, BAS it is switched off; on hand, as usual, there is a normal function of a working brake.

Anti-blocking system (ABS)

There is a danger of failure!

Movement on the exceeded speed, especially on turns, hydroplaning and non-compliance with a distance to ahead going cars increase risk of failure. This risk cannot be reduced and ABS system.

If the electronic key in the lock of ignition is in situation 2, the control lamp of ABS system burns. It dies away at the working engine.

If the control lamp of ABS system on a control panel at the working engine constantly burns — address to the Section Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions.

The ABS system prevents blocking of wheels irrespective of a road condition, since speed about 8 km/h.

If one of wheels when braking reaches a blocking limit, owing to management of brake pressure by means of ABS, vibration of the car and an easy pulsation of a brake pedal is felt. Thus the driver is notified on transition to regulation by means of ABS.

In need of further braking do not reduce effort of a foot to a pedal. Thus advantage of ABS system — braking at preservation of controllability of the car is used.

If complete braking is required, a pedal of a brake press with full force, the regulation mode by means of ABS system thereby is provided.

In case of the slippery road, for example, at ice and snowfall, the system can already work at low effort of braking. The pulsation of a brake pedal arising thus specifies that style of driving should be adapted for difficult road conditions.

Electronic antiprobuksovochny system (ESP)

The electronic antiprobuksovochny system (ESP) increases stability of movement of the car and ability of transfer of traction effort at all operating modes.

At the expense of a pritormazhivaniye of wheels counteraction to drift or insufficient controllability of the car is created. The precautionary alarm lamp on a speedometer thus blinks.

There is a danger of failure!

If the precautionary alarm lamp on a speedometer blinks, conform a movement mode to road conditions.

Movement on too high speed increases risk of failure. This risk cannot be reduced and ESP system.

If the electronic key in the lock of ignition is in situation 2, on a speedometer the precautionary alarm lamp burns. It dies away at the working engine.

Switching off of function of antiprobuksovochny system ESP

The switch is on the average console.

Press the switch:

1 Switching off
2 Inclusion

At movement with antisliding chains, on deep snow, sand or gravel switching off of antiprobuksovochny system can play a positive role. In this case the torque of the engine is not limited and driving wheels can be scrolled, creating milling action.

For the purpose of switching off press the ESP system switch above-1-.

The precautionary alarm lamp on a speedometer lights up.

Function of management by traction effort joins also at achievement by one wheel of a limit of coupling of the tire from darling for example, at unilateral ice.

The wheel is thus braked for increase in traction effort. This function works till the speed about 40 to / h. It is disconnected the latest at speed of movement about 80 km/h.

The precautionary alarm lamp on a speedometer starts to blink on any speed of movement if tires reached a limit of coupling with the road.

For return to a normal mode of movement press the ESP system switch below-2-. The Antiprobuksovochny system is again ready to work.

There is a danger of failure!

If on a speedometer the precautionary alarm lamp lights up:

Conform a movement mode to road conditions.

If on a speedometer the precautionary alarm lamp starts to blink:

At a troganiye from a place press an accelerator pedal only so as far as it is necessary.

During movement a pedal of an accelerator release.

Conform a movement mode to road conditions.

Antiprobuksovochny system do not switch off.

Non-compliance with these precautionary instructions increases danger of failure. There is a risk of drift of the car.

At towage with the lifted forward bridge or control of the parking brake at the stand for test of brakes the engine should be switched off. Otherwise owing to active braking action through ESP system possibly violation of brake system of the back bridge.

In case of malfunction of anti-blocking system (ABS), it is switched off as well ESP system.

At car operation during the winter period the maximum effect from electronic antiprobuksovochny system (ESP) is reached only at use of tires «by M + S» and, if necessary, antisliding chains.

When using wheels with tires of the various sizes appropriate functioning of ESP system is not provided.

If the electronic antiprobuksovochny system (ESP) is switched off, inclusion of Distronic (DTR) system is impossible.

At inclusion of antiprobuksovochny system ESP the Distronic system is switched off — the yellow precautionary alarm lamp on a speedometer lights up.

Regulation of a road gleam of the car

The switch is on the average console.

Switch pressing at the working engine:

1 Raised road gleam
2 Normal road gleam
3 Control light-emitting diodes

The road gleam of the car is automatically regulated depending on the established road gleam ("raised" or "normal") and speeds of movement. Thus traffic safety raises, and fuel consumption decreases.

At speed of movement over about 140 km/h decrease in a road gleam of the car to level about 15 mm below the normal is made. It is made irrespective of the chosen level of a road gleam. At speed of movement below about 70 km/h the normal road gleam is again established.

Switch pressing above-1-:

The raised road gleam, is established, for example, at the bad road. Increase of a road gleam of the car approximately on 25 mm is thus made. Control light-emitting diodes-3-light up. On the multiinformation display indication «AIR SPRING, VEHICLE RISING» joins (ПНЕВМОПОДВЕСКА, the CAR RISES!).

Upon termination of car lifting indication is switched off.

At speed of movement about 120 km/h or if speed within about 5 minutes remains between 80 km/h and 120 km/h, installation «the raised road gleam» are higher is dumped. On the multiinformation display indication «AIR SPRING, LEVEL CANCELLED joins!’ (ПНЕВМОПОДВЕСКА, the CHOICE of the ROAD GLEAM is DUMPED!).

If speed of movement of the car does not reach these limits, the raised road gleam remains in memory even at a vynimaniye of an electronic key from the ignition lock.

Switch pressing below-2-:

Decrease in the raised road gleam to the normal. Control light-emitting diodes-3-die away.

System of the notification and the alarm system of malfunctions — address to the Section subsection "Pnevmopodveska" Precautionary and control lamps, and also messages of the multiinformation display on the registered malfunctions).

Adaptive dempfiruyushchy system (ADS)

The switch is on the average console.

Press the switch at the working engine:

1 Sports program of damping
2 Comfortable program of damping
3 Control light-emitting diode

Optimum damping is automatically established depending on the chosen program of damping ("sports" or "comfortable"), a condition of the road and style of driving.

Switch pressing above-1-:

Sports program of damping. Installation for sports style of driving. The control light-emitting diode-3-on the switch lights up dies away.

The chosen program of damping (1, 2) remains in memory, even at a vynimaniye of an electronic key from the ignition lock.

Parktronic (PTS) system

The Parktronic system displays to you optically and acoustically distance between your car and an obstacle.

If the electronic key in the lock of ignition turns in situation 2, the Parktronic system automatically joins and remains about 15 km/h activated till the speed.

At higher speed the Parktronic system is automatically switched off. At low speed it automatically again joins.

Activation of signaling devices with the corresponding zone of control is made depending on position of the lever of the selector of automatic transmission.

Position of the lever of the AT selector:

«D» — are activated signaling devices for a forward zone.
«R», «N» — are activated signaling devices for forward and back zones.
"R" — signaling devices деактивированы.

There is a danger of failure!

Responsibility for a parkovaniye and when maneuvering in critical situations always is born by the driver.

The Parktronic system is auxiliary system. It is not calculated on replacing the driver, and unable to release it from a duty to remain attentive.

The Parktronic system can be switched off by the switch on the average console.

Sensors

Control of the next zone is made by 6 sensors-1-on a front bumper and 4 sensors on a rear bumper.

 For ensuring full operability of Parktronic system sensors constantly hold free from dirt, ice and снежуры.

For this purpose make regular cleaning of sensors, thus it is necessary to avoid scratches or damage of sensors. (Cleaning of sensors of Parktronic system on bumpers — address to Head the Body).

Signaling devices

1 Frame
2 Segments

The distance between the sensor and an obstacle to you is displayed by segments of-2-signaling devices.

Signaling devices for a forward zone are on the dashboard over the air deflector from the driver and over the average air deflector.

Signaling devices for a back zone are on a covering of a ceiling of a roof in a back part of salon.

If the Parktronic system is included, on signaling devices a framework-1-is shone.

Signaling devices are subdivided on 6 yellow and 2 red segments.

If the car comes nearer to the obstacle registered by sensors, depending on distance one or several segments light up. Since the seventh segment it is in addition distributed faltering, and from the eighth segment — a constant warning sound signal within at most 3 seconds.

Radius of operation of sensors

Front bumper:

in the middle of about 100 cm
corners about 60 cm

Rear bumper:

in the middle of about 120 cm
corners about 80 cm

At these distances the first yellow segment lights up. At reduction of distance other segments light up.

The minimum distance between the sensor and an obstacle:

forward corners about 15 cm
in the middle of about 20 cm

All yellow segments and one or both red segments are shone. In addition approximately for 3 seconds the warning sound signal is distributed.

Further approach can lead to that the obstacle will not be displayed any more (segments do not light up).

There is a danger of failure!

Responsibility for a parkovaniye and when maneuvering in critical situations always is born by the driver.

Watch that in a zone of maneuvering there were no people or animals.

The Parktronic system is auxiliary system. It is not calculated on replacing the driver, and unable to release it from a duty to remain attentive. Thus, the driver should and further at movement on low speed pay attention to a direct environment of the car.

At a parkovaniye it is necessary to give particular attention to the subjects being below or above sensors, such, for example, as curbstones for flowers or дышло the trailer.

The similar subjects being in close proximity (about 30 cm), can be not always identified by system and can be thus damaged or lead to car damage.

Function of Parktronic system can be broken, if sensors are damaged or covered with dirt, snow, ice and especially snezhury.
The hindrances arising at the expense of other sources of ultrasound, for example, of a pneumatic brake of lorries or pneumatic hammers also cannot be completely excluded.

It is possible that certain subjects which can touch a lobby or a back part of the car, will not be identified by system sensors.

Parktronic system switching off

The switch is on the average console.

Press the switch:

1 Switching off
2 Inclusion
3 Control light-emitting diode — burns at the switched-off Parktronic system

Inclusion occurs automatically if the electronic key in the lock of ignition turns in situation 2.

Trailer towage

If at trailer towage the feeding cable is inserted into a plug receptacle, function of protection of a back part of a body is not activated.

If the feeding cable is disconnected, function of protection of a back part of a body is again activated.

The adapter for the trailer with the 7-contact tip should be pulled out from the socket after a trailer detachment, otherwise function of protection of a back part of a body remains not activated.

Malfunction of Parktronic system

At malfunction only red segments of all signaling devices light up.

The extraneous source of ultrasound or the polluted sensor can be the reason. (Cleaning of sensors of Parktronic system on bumpers — address to Head the Body).

After cleaning of sensors an electronic key in the ignition lock again turn in situation 2.

At malfunction in addition within about 3 seconds the warning sound signal is distributed, and the control light-emitting diode on the Parktronic system switch on the average console lights up. The system is switched off!

As soon as possible address on Mercedes-Benz station for Parktronic system check.

Programming of the built-in device of remote control

There is a danger of failure!

During programming and by pressing of the button of the transmitter of the built-in device of remote control in an internal rear-view mirror, in a zone of movement of a door or gate of garage there should not be people or any subjects.

The door of garage can start to open or be closed and, thus, to put traumas to people.

Transmitter-1-,-2-and-3 buttons - can be programmed.

Programming on an example of the button of the transmitter-1-:

· An electronic key in the lock of ignition turn in situation 1 or 2.

The button of the transmitter-1-press and hold pressed until the control light-emitting diode-4-will not start to blink with frequency approximately once a second.

The button of the transmitter-1-continue to hold the pressed.

The control light-emitting diode-4-starts to blink at once, if one of buttons of the transmitter is programmed for the first time or if contents of the STORAGE of the built-in device of remote control previously were dumped.

At repeated programming of the programmed button of the transmitter the control light-emitting diode-4-starts to blink in about 20 seconds:

· The portable device of remote control by system of opening of a door of garage hold directed (a transmitter exit) on the left side of an internal rear-view mirror. Press the button of the transmitter of the portable device of remote control until the control light-emitting diode-4-will not start to blink quickly.

Programming passed successfully.

· Release the transmitter-1-button.

Opening/closing of a door of garage
