Lamps

Lamps
Parking lamps/Low beams
Parking lamps
The front, rear and side vehicle
lighting is switched on. You can use
the parking lamps to signal the
position of the vehicle when it is parked.
For information on lighting on one side of
the vehicle for parking, which is available
as an additional feature, refer to page 47.
Low beams
When you switch off the ignition
with the low beam headlamps on,
only the parking lamps will remain
on.
Defective bulbs
The indicator lamp lights up:
At least one bulb of the vehicle's
exterior lighting has failed.
For replacing bulbs refer to page 88.
Follow me home lamps
When you activate the headlamp flasher
after parking the vehicle and switching off
the lights, the low beams will come on for a
brief period.
You can also have this function acti-
vated/deactivated if you wish.<
LIGHTS ON warning
Whenever you open the driver's door after
having turned the ignition key to position 0,
you will hear an acoustic signal for a few seconds to remind you that the lamps have
not been switched off
.
Daytime driving lamps*
If you desire, the light switch can be left in
the second position:
When the ignition is switched off, the exter-
nal lighting is also switched off.
You can have the activation settings
for the daytime driving lamps pro-
grammed on your vehicle.<
Automatic headlamp control*
When the switch is set to this posi-
tion, the system automatically acti-
vates and cancels the low beams in
response to changes in ambient light, for
example in tunnels, at dusk, and when it is
raining or snowing.
The vehicle's external lights remain
on constantly when you switch on the
front fog lamps after the headlamps have
come on automatically.<
Automatic headlamp control cannot
serve as a substitute for the driver's
judgement in determining when the vehicle
lights should be switched on. For example,
the sensors are not able to detect fog. To
avoid safety risks, you should respond to
these kinds of low-visibility situations by
switching the headlamps on manually.<
You can have the sensitivity of your
vehicle's automatic headlamp control
adjusted.<

1Low beams
2High beams
H7 bulb, 55 watts
The H7 bulb is pressurized. There-
fore, wear safety glasses and protec-
tive gloves. Failure to comply with these
precautions could result in physical injury if
the bulb is damaged.<
1.Turn the bulb holder to the left and pull
out
2.Remove and replace the bulb
3.Install in the reverse order.
When cleaning the headlamps,
please observe the instructions in the
Caring for your vehicle brochure.<
Xenon lamps*
The service life of these bulbs is very long
and the probability of a failure is very low,
provided that they are not switched on and
off an unusual number of times. If one of
these bulbs should nevertheless fail, it is
possible to continue driving with great cau-
tion using the fog lamps, provided traffic
laws in your area do not prohibit this.
Because of the extremely high volt-
ages involved, any work on the xenon
lighting system, including bulb-changing,
should be carried out by technically quali-
fied personnel only. Otherwise, there is a
risk of fatal injury.<
