Alarm system
The concept
The enabled alarm system reacts to the follow‐
ing:
▷Opening of a door, the hood or the tailgate.▷Movements inside the vehicle.▷Changes in the vehicle tilt, e.g., during at‐
tempts to steal a wheel or tow the car.▷Interruptions in battery voltage.
Depending on the market-specific version, the
alarm system briefly signals unauthorized entry
attempts by:
▷By sounding an acoustic alarm.▷By switching on the hazard warning system.
Tilt alarm sensor
The tilt of the vehicle is monitored.
The alarm system responds in situations such as
attempts to steal a wheel or tow the car.
Interior motion sensor For the interior motion sensor to function prop‐
erly, the windows and the glass sunroof must
be closed.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
can be switched off together, such as in the fol‐
lowing situations:▷In duplex garages.▷During transport on car-carrying trains, at
sea or on a trailer.▷When animals are to remain in the vehicle.
Switching off the tilt alarm sensor and
interior motion sensor
▷ Press the button on the remote
control twice in succession.▷Lock the vehicle twice with the integrated
key.
The LEDs flash in short succession for approx.
2 seconds. The tilt alarm sensor and interior
motion sensor remain switched off until the ve‐
hicle is unlocked and locked again.

and, in some circumstances, an acoustic signal
and text messages at the top of the Control Dis‐
play.
Indicator/warning lamps
The indicator and warning lamps can light up in
a variety of combinations and colors in display
area 1 or 2.
Several of the lamps are checked for proper
functioning and light up temporarily when the
engine is started or the ignition is switched on.
The symbol indicates that Check Control
messages have been stored. The Check Control
messages can be displayed later.

Adaptive Light Control
The concept
Adaptive Light Control is a variable headlamp
control system that enables dynamic illumina‐
tion of the road surface.
Depending on the steering angle and other pa‐
rameters, the light from the headlamp follows
the course of the road.
Activating
With the ignition switch on, turn the light switch
to position 3, refer to page 78.
To avoid blinding oncoming traffic, the Adap‐
tive Light Control does not swivel to the driver's
side when the vehicle is at a standstill.
When driving in reverse, Adaptive Light Control
is not active.
Malfunction The warning lamp lights up. A message
appears on the Control Display. Adap‐
tive Light Control is malfunctioning or
has failed. Have the system checked as soon as
possible.
Fog lamps
At a glance
To switch on the front fog lamps: press the
switch.
To switch off, press the respective switch up‐
ward or downward again.
Fog lamps
The parking lamps or low beams must be
switched on. The green indicator lamp lights up
when the front fog lamps are switched on.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the front
fog lamps are switched off when the headlamp
flasher or the high beams are activated.
If the automatic headlamp control is activated,
refer to page 78, the low beams are switched
on automatically when the front fog lamps are
switched on.
Instrument lightingThe parking lamps or low beams must be
switched on to adjust the brightness. The
brightness is increased to a certain limit and is
then reduced again.
