You should then take particular care when closing the windows! You may
otherwise suffer severe injuries as a re sult of getting an arm, for example,
jammed in the window!
Note

On vehicles fitted with an ti-theft alarm system the convenience window opening
is possible by means of the key in the lo cking cylinder only 45 seconds after deacti-
vating the warning system or after activating the anti-theft alarm system.
Operational faultsElectrically operated powe r windows do not operate
If the battery has been disconnected and then reconnected while the window was
opened, the electrically operated power windows do not operate. The system must be
activated. Proceed as follows in order to re-establish the function:
Switch on the ignition.

Operation in winter
Ice accumulating on the surface of the wi ndows during the winter may result in a
greater resistance when closing the windows and the window may stop and go down
several centimetres
It is necessary to put the force limiter out of operation in order to close the window
 page 48, “Force limiter of the power windows”.
WARNING
The system is fitted with a force limiter page 48. If there is an obstacle, the
closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centimeters.
You should then take particular care when closing the windows! You may
otherwise suffer severe injuries as a re sult of getting an arm, for example,


Switching on side lights– Turn the light switch into position
.
Switching on the low beam and main beam– Turn the light switch into position
.
– Push the main beam lever slightly forward in the spring-tensioned position in order to switch on the main beam page 59, fig. 43.
Switching off lights (except daylight driving lights)– Turn the light switch into position 0.
Low beam comes on only if the ignition is switched on. After switching off the ignition,
the low beam is switched off automatica lly and only the side lights come on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in fig. 37 . The symbols which mark the switch positions are iden-
tical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with side lights on - risk of accident! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other
oncoming traffic. In this case, always switch on the low beam when it is dark or
if visibility is poor.
Note

An audible warning will sound if you wi thdraw the ignition key and open the
driver's door when the vehicle lights are still on.

The acoustic warning signal is switched off over the door contact when the driver's
door is closed (ignition off). The vehicle can be parked with the side lights on.

If the car is parked for a lengthy period, we recommend switching off all lights, or
leaving only the parking lights switched on.

The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in accordance
with the legal requirements.

If a fault occurs in the light switch , the low beam comes on automatically

In the event of cool or humid weather cond itions, the headlights can be misted up
from inside.
The temperature difference between interior and external area of the headlight
lenses is decisive.
 When the driving lights are switched on, the light outlet surfaces are free from
mist after a short period. The headlight lenses can possibly mist up at the border
areas.
 It also concerns reverse light and turn signal lights.
 This mist has no influence on th e life of the lighting system.
Daylight driving lightsSwitching on daylight driving lights– Switch on the ignition without turning the light switch out of the position 0.

Note

Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not impair its
function or put it out of operation.

The same principles as for using the automa tic light control also apply to the light
which is switched on manually page 53.
Cornering lights*The cornering lights are used to illuminate the curves by means of the cone of light
swiveling together with the front headlight with Xenon lights*. This function is active
when the speed of the car increases to more than 10km/h.
The swiveling function of the headlights ca n be switched off / on via the menu point
Assistants in the main menu of the information display* page 24.
WARNING
If the cornering ligh ts are defective, the headlights are automatically lowered to
the emergency position, which prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming traffic.
Thus the illuminated length of the road is shortened. Drive carefully and have
the car inspected immediatel y by a specialist garage.Coming Home FunctionThe function makes it possible to switch on the lights in the darkness for a short time
after leaving the vehicle.Switching on Coming Home Function– The light switch is in the position automatic driving lamp control

Coming Home Function
The lights go out 10 seconds after closing all the doors and the boot lid.
If a door or the boot lid re mains open, the lights go out 60 seconds after switching off
the ignition.
On vehicles fitted with automatic driving la mp control you can also switch the light
switch in the position

. The function Coming Home is controlled with the light
sensor in the mount of the interior rear mirror. If the light intensity is higher than the
set value of the light sensor, the Coming Home Function is not switched on after
switching off the ignition.
Note

If the Coming Home Function is switched on constantly, the battery will be heavily
discharged particularly in short-haul traffic.

The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in accordance
with the legal requirements.

Windshield wiper and wash systemWindshield wiper
You can operate the windscreen wipers and automatic wipe/wash
using the windscreen wiper lever.The windscreen wiper lever fig. 50 has the following positions:Finger-operated wiping– If you wish to wipe the windscreen only briefly, push the lever into the sprung
position . If you hold the lever in the lo wer position for more than 1 second, the
wiper wipes faster.Intermittent wiping– Position the lever up into position .
– Set with the switch the desired brea k between the individual wiper strokesSlow wipe– Position the lever up into position .Fast wipe– Position the lever up into position .
Automatic wipe/wash for windscreen– Pull the lever towards the steering wheel into sprung position , the wash system
sprays immediately, the windscreen wiper starts wiping a little later. The wash
system and the windscreen wiper operate simultaneously at a speed of more than
120 km/h.
– Release the lever. The windscreen wash system stops and the wiper continues for another 3 - 4 wiper strokes (depending on the period of spraying of the wind-
screen). At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper wipes once again* 5 seconds
after the last wiper stroke in order to wipe the last drops from the windscreen. This
function can be activated/deacti vated by a specialist garage.Rain sensor*– Move the lever into position .
– You can set the sensitivity of the sensor individually with switch .Wiping the rear window pane– Push the lever away from the steering wheel into position - the widescreen
wiper will operate every 6 seconds.Automatic wipe/wash for the rear window pane*– Press the lever from the steering wheel forward into the sprung position , the wash system sprays immediately, the windscreen wiper starts wiping a little later.

– Letting go of the lever will cause the windscreen wash system to stop and the wiper to continue for another 2 - 3 wiper strokes (depending on the period of spraying of
the windscreen). The lever will stay in position after releasing it .Switching windscreen wipers off– Move the lever back into its home position .
After the windscreen wiper switches off each time or the ignition switches off for the
third time, the position of the windscreen wiper changes, this counteracts an early
fatigue of the wiper rubbers. After starting the vehicle, the front window wipers auto-
matically move into the lower rest position.
