Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models
as well as standard and optional equipment of your vehicle that were available at the time of going to print. Country-specific variations are
possible. Note that your vehicle may not be
equipped with all of the described functions.
This also applies to systems and functions
relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 25). Exterior lighting
Important safety notes
For reasons of safety, we recommend that
you drive with the lights switched on even
during the daytime. There may be differences
in operation due to legal requirements and
voluntary recommendations in some coun-
tries. Bulb failure indicator
The bulb failure indicator is only an aid. You
are responsible for the proper functioning of
the vehicle lighting. Insufficient or non-func-
tioning vehicle lighting puts the operating
safety of the vehicle at risk.
For this reason, check the condition and func-
tion of your vehicle's lighting system and, if
necessary, that of the trailer before each jour- ney.
The bulb failure indicator monitors all of the
exterior lighting lamps, except the perimeter
lamp and the trailer lighting. If a bulb fails,
either the 0049(Ypage 35) indicator lamp
lights up, or you will see a corresponding
message in the display (Y page 208).
i Depending on the equipment, the bulb
failure indicator can fail for all lamps with
the exception of the turn signal lamps. Light switch

Cornering lamps
The cornering lamps improve the illumination of the road over a wide angle in the direction
you are turning, enabling better visibility in
tight bends, for example.
The cornering light function switches on
automatically, if:
R you are traveling at a speed of less than
25 mph (40 km/h) and you switch on a turn signal or turn the steering wheel.
R you are traveling at a speed between
25 mph (40 km/ h)and 43 mph (70 km/h)
and turn the steering wheel.
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after
no more than 3 minutes.
i If reverse gear is engaged the lamp on the
opposite side of the vehicle switches on
instead. Hazard warning lamps
G
WARNING
The rear exterior light will be covered if you:
R open the rear doors by 90°
R open the rear dropside.
The vehicle will then be difficult for other road users to see or will not be seen by them at all,
particularly if it is dark or visibility is poor.
There is a risk of an accident.
You should therefore ensure in this and simi-
lar situations that the vehicle is visible from
the rear in accordance with the relevant
national regulations, by using the warning tri- angle, for instance. Hazard warning lamp switch

matically if:
R an air bag is deployed.
R you brake sharply and bring the vehicle to a
halt from a speed of more than 45 mph
(70 km/h).
If the hazard warning lamps have been
switched on automatically, press the 002F
hazard warning lamp switch to switch them
off.
i The hazard warning lamps work even
when the ignition is switched off. Headlamp cleaning system
