Programming tips

If you are having difficulty programming the
integrated remote control, here are some
helpful tips:

R

Check the frequency of hand-held remote
control

5

(typically located on the reverse

side of the remote). The integrated remote
control is compatible with radio-frequency
devices operating between 280-390 MHz.

R

Put a new battery in hand-held remote
control

5

. This will increase the likelihood

of the hand-held remote control sending a
faster and more accurate signal to the
integrated remote control.

R

While performing step 3, hold hand-held
remote control

5

at different lengths and

angles from the signal transmitter button
(

2

,

3

or

4

) you are programming.

Attempt varying angles at the distance of 2
to 12 inches (5 to 30 cm) away or the same
angle at varying distances.

R

If another hand-held remote control is
available for the same device, try the
programming steps again using that other
hand-held remote control. Make sure new
batteries are in the hand-held remote
control before beginning the procedure.

R

Straighten the antenna wire from the
garage door opener assembly. This may
help improve transmitting and/or receiving
signals.

i

Certain types of garage door openers are

incompatible with the integrated remote
control. If you should experience further
difficulties with programming the
integrated remote control, contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center, or call
the Mercedes-Benz Customer Assistance
Center (in the USA) at
1-800-FOR-MERCedes, or Customer
Service (in Canada) at 1-800-387-0100.
