Fog lights with the CORNER functionRead and observe
on page 67 first.
The function CORNER provides better illumination of the nearby environment
when turning, manoeuvring or anything similar.
The function automatically switches on the fog lights on each side of the ve- hicle, if the following conditions are met.
The turn signal is switched on or the front wheels are turned sharply 1)
.
The vehicle speed is below 40 km/h.
The low beam is switched on.
The fog lights are not switched on.
Note
The two fog lights are switched on when you shift into the reverse gear.
COMING HOME / LEAVING HOME
Read and observe
on page 67 first.
The function COMING HOME ensures that the vehicle's environment is illumi-
nated after switching off the ignition and opening the driver's door.
The function LEAVING HOME ensures that the vehicle's environment is illumi-
nated after unlocking the vehicle with the radio remote control unit.
The function switches the light on only if there is poorer visibility and the light
switch is in the position .
Enabling / disabling and setting functions
The functions and setting of the lighting duration can be activated or deactiva-
ted in the Infotainment system » Owner´s Manual Infotainment , chap-
ter CARVehicle settings .
CAUTION■
Poorer visibility is evaluated by a motor mounted below the windscreen in
the holder of the interior mirror sensor. Do not attach any stickers or similar
objects in front of the light sensor on the windscreen in order to avoid impair-
ing the function or its reliability.■
If this option is always enabled, then the battery is heavily loaded.

If both switch-on conditions are conflicting, for example, if the front wheels are turned to the left and
the right turn signal light is switched on, the turn signal light has the higher priority.

When the hazard warning system is on and the indicator light is switched on
(e.g. when turning), the hazard warning lights are switched off temporarily and
only the turn signal flashes on the relevant side of the vehicle.

charge level.■
If the two-sided parking lights are switched on when the ignition is off, then
there is no automatic switching off of the parking light.
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 headlights must be adjusted at a specialist garage.
You can adjust the Xenon headlights yourself by setting the travel mode in In- fotainment » Owner´s Manual Infotainment , chapter CARVehicle settings .

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. ▶

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

The heater automatically switches off after approximately 10 minutes.
If the engine is switched off when the heating is on and turned back on again
within 10 minutes, the heating is continued.
Note
■ If the on-board voltage decreases, the heating switches off automatically

Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Switching on/off
124
Radio remote control
125
Functional requirements of the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventila-
tion)
The charge state of the vehicle battery is sufficient.
The fuel supply is adequate (the warning light  is not illuminated in the
instrument cluster).
Aux. heating
The auxiliary heating can be used when both when stationary, when the en-
gine is switched off, to preheat the vehicle and also while driving (e.g. during
the heating phase of the engine).
The auxiliary heating warms up the coolant by combusting fuel from the vehi-
cle tank. This heats the air flowing into the passenger compartment (if the
blower is turned on).
The auxiliary heating also warms up the engine.
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by
switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively de-
creased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun). 
