Leather steering wheel.
The leather steering wheel with a diameter of 450 mm increases comfort and also contributes to an individual, homely atmosphere. Leather, a natural material, quickly compensates major temperature differences. The insert and the multifunction buttons are available in two versions: black grained and silver shadow chrome. In the area of the spokes, the leather is perforated.
Keyless Start.
With the high-quality remote control key, the vehicle can be conveniently opened or locked from a distance of up to 50 metres. The radio remote control features direction-independent operation and does not therefore need to be aimed directly at the vehicle.

The driver's and co-driver's doors can still be conveniently locked and unlocked from the inside using the manual switch in the doors. With the comfort opening/closing system, the side windows and sliding sunroof are operated by means of the remote control. A receiver in the dashboard console converts the radio commands accordingly and controls the locking system.

The integrated HOLD function is activated when the vehicle is stationary – at a red light, for example – simply by depressing the brake pedal with greater force. The function is released once the accelerator pedal is operated again.
Remote online & Remote Truck App244.
Remote Online makes it possible to connect a mobile device, such as the driver's smartphone, to the vehicle's own network.

Therefore, depending on the country, a large selection of other stations in CD quality is available. Other advantages include excellent reception characteristics and valuable additional information, for example on the radio programme.
