The detail provides information about the distance in km, that can be travelled
with the current tank and with the same driving style.
If you drive more efficiently this value can increase.
AdBlue ®
range
The detail provides information about the distance in km that can still be trav-
elled with the AdBlue ®
capacity and with the same driving style.
If you drive more efficiently this value can increase.
Average fuel consumption
The indication is calculated continuously since the last deletion of the memory.
After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 100 m driven.
Current fuel consumption
You can use this information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel
consumption.
When the vehicle is stationary or slowly moving the fuel consumption is dis-
played in l/h (on models for some countries the following appears --,- km/l).
Oil temperature
If the engine oil temperature is in the range 80-110 °C, the engine operating
temperature is reached.
If the oil temperature is lower than 80 °C or above 110 °C, avoid high engine
revs, full throttle and high engine loads.
If the oil temperature is lower than 50 °C or if there is a fault in the system for
checking the oil temperature  are displayed instead of the oil temperature.

45Information system

Fog mode
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adjusted so that the driver is not
dazzled by the reflection of the cone of light by fog in front of the vehicle.
The mode is active at speeds of 15 – 70 km/h and if the rear fog light is switch- ed on for a period of time longer than about 10 seconds. The deactivation of
the mode is carried out a few minutes after switching off the rear fog lights.
Dynamic cornering lights
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adjusted to the steering angle so
that the road in the curve is illuminated. This function is active at speeds
greater than 10 km.h and in all System modes.
travel mode
If the travel mode is activated, there is no automatic cone of light adaptation
in front of the vehicle.
The travel mode can be activated/deactivated in the Infotainment » Owner´s
Manual Infotainment , chapter CAR - vehicle settings .
Economy mode
When the Eco driving mode » page 171 is activated the system is in Economy
mode and there is no direction dependent light cone adaptation in front of the
vehicle.WARNINGIf there is a system malfunction the headlights are automatically lowered
to the emergency position, which prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming
traffic. This reduces the cone of light in front of the vehicle. Drive carefully
and visit a specialist garage as soon as possible.Front and rear fog lightsFig. 57

Driving abroad
Read and observe
on page 67 first.
When driving in countries with opposing traffic system (traffic on the
left/right), your headlights may dazzle oncoming traffic. In order to avoid this,

The headlamp assistant (following as system) can prevent the dazzling of oth-
er road users.
The system automatically switches the high beam on / off, if necessary, ad-
justs the beam of the headlights in accordance with the existing traffic (other
vehicles) and environmental conditions (e.g. driving through a lighted village).
The switching on / off of the high beam, if necessary adaptation of the head-
lamp is controlled by a camera » Fig. 59.
Depending on the equipment, the following system versions can exist. ▶
Light Assist
▶
Dynamic Light AssistLight Assist
The system automatically switches the high beam on / off.
Dynamic Light Assist
The system automatically adjusts the light cone shape of the headlights in or-
der to prevent the dazzling oncoming and preceding vehicles, while ensuring
the highest possible illumination of the road edges. 
72Using the system

In the following cases, the automatic adjustment of the cone of light of the
headlights is disabled, the system automatically switches only the high beam
on/off.
▶ The driving mode Eco is selected » page 171, Selection of the driving
mode(Driving Mode Selection) .
▶ The driving mode Travel mode is selected » page 70, travel mode .
In the following case the Dynamic Light Assist
is disabled.
▶ The system is in rain or fog mode » page 69, Xenon headlight .
WARNINGThe system only serves as a support and does not relieve the driver of his
or her responsibility to check the headlights and low beam and, if necessa-
ry, to switch on the lights depending on the light conditions. The manual
operation may be required for example, in the following situations.■
When visibility is poor, e.g. fog, heavy rain, or thick snowfall.
■
Passing poorly lit road users, e.g. cyclists or pedestrians.
■
When driving around “sharp” bends.
■
Driving through poorly-lit locations.
■
The camera viewing range is obstructed by an obstacle.
CAUTION
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects to the windscreen to avoid impair-
ing the functions of the systems.
