cause injuries.•Wait for the vehicle to come to a standstill before removing the ignition
key from the lock! Otherwise, the steering lock could engage suddenly,
causing an accident.

Please observe any relevant legal requirements which may apply in your
country.Adaptive headlights* (for driving around bends)
When driving around bends, the headlights will light the
most important areas of the road.
The dynamic cornering light gives better illumination of the curve area and
the side of the road when driving around a bend ⇒fig. 90 . The dynamic
cornering light is controlled automatically depending on the speed and the
steering wheel angle.
The dipped beam headlights are regulated automatically when you drive
around a bend, depending on how far you turn the steering wheel. The two
main headlights move at different angles to avoid that the front of the vehicle
is left completely in the dark.
Note
The system operates from a speed of about 10 km/h.Hazard warning lights

The hazard warning lights are used to draw the attention of
other road users to your vehicle in emergencies.
