R If the electrolyte is swallowed, immediately
rinse your mouth out thoroughly. Do not
induce vomiting.
R If electrolyte comes into contact with your
skin or hair or is swallowed, seek medical
attention immediately.

tries, operation of the headlamps varies due
to legal requirements and self-imposed obli-
gations. Setting the exterior lighting

WARNING
When the light switch is set to Ã, the low-
beam headlamps may not be switched on
automatically if there is fog, snow or other
causes of poor visibility due to the weather
conditions such as spray. There is a risk of an
accident.
In such situations, turn the light switch to
L.
The automatic headlamp feature is only an
aid. The driver is responsible for the vehicle's lighting at all times.
The daytime running lamps improve the visi-
bility of your vehicle during the day. To do this,
the daytime running lamps function must be
switched on using the on-board computer
(Y page 198).
If the drive system is switched on and you turn
the light switch to TorL, the manual
settings take precedence over the daytime
running lamps.
Low-beam headlamps
Even if the light sensor does not detect that it is dark, the parking lamps and low-beam
headlamps switch on when the ignition is
switched on and the light switch is set to the
L position. This is a particularly useful
function in the event of rain and fog.
X To switch on the low-beam headlamps:
turn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock or start the drive system.
X Turn the light switch to L.
The green Lindicator lamp in the instru-
ment cluster lights up. Rear fog lamp
The rear fog lamp improves visibility of your
vehicle for the traffic behind in the event of
thick fog. Please take note of the country-
specific regulations for the use of rear fog
lamps.
X To switch on the rear fog lamp: turn the
SmartKey to position 2in the ignition lock
or start the drive system.

parking lamps or standing lamps are
switched off automatically in order to pre-
serve energy to start the drive system.
Always park your vehicle safely and suffi-
ciently lit according to legal standards.

periods of several hours. Where possible,
switch the right-hand Xor left-hand
W standing lamp on.

ment cluster lights up.

of the vehicle) or X(right-hand side of
