The light switch is in position 
» Fig. 49 then depending on the equipment
the automatic switch on / off the lights corresponding to the light or weather
conditions (rain) takes place.
If the light switch is in position 
, the lettering 
illuminates next to the
light switch. If the light is switched on automatically, the symbol 
next to the
light switch also lights up.
Automatic driving light control during rain
The daytime running lights are switched on automatically if the following con-
ditions are met:
The light switch is in the position 
.
The windscreen wipers are on for more than 15 s.
The light turns off about 4 minutes after turning off the wipers.
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 ob-
jects in front of the light sensor on the windscreen in order to avoid impairing
the function or its reliability.
Xenon headlight
Read and observe
on page 64 first.
The Xenon headlight (hereinafter referred to as system) ensures that the
roads are illuminated independent of the traffic and weather conditions.
The system automatically adjusts the light cone in front of the vehicle due to
the driving data (e.g. vehicle speed and load conditions, steering angle, using
the wiper).
The system works as long as the light switch is in position .
The system operates automatically in the following modes.
Out of town mode
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is similar to the low beam.
City mode
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adapted so that the adjacent side-
walks, crossings, pedestrian crossings, etc., are also illuminated. The mode is
active at speeds of 15-50 km/h.
Motorway mode
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adjusted so that the driver can re-
spond in time to an obstruction or other hazard in time. The mode is active at
speeds above 120 km/h.
Rain mode
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adjusted so that the driver can re-
duce the glare from oncoming vehicles in rain.
The mode is active at speeds of 20-70 km/h and if the windscreen wipers con-
tinuously operate for a period of time longer than about 2 minutes. The deacti-
vation of the mode is carried out a few minutes after switching off the wiper. 
66Using the system

New tyres
New tyres must firstly be “run in”, as they do not offer optimal grip at first.
Therefore, drive especially carefully for the first 500 km or so.
New brake pads
New brake pads have to first “grind in” because these do not initially have the
best possible braking effect.
Therefore, drive especially carefully for the first 200 km or so.
Tips for economical driving
To achieve the lowest possible fuel consumption, the following instructions
must be observed.
Looking ahead when driving
Avoid unnecessary acceleration and braking.
Switch in an energy saving and timely manner Observe the recommended gear » page 40.
Avoid full throttle and high speeds
Fuel consumption can be reduced by half if only three-quarters of the possible
top speed of your vehicle is used.
Reducing idling
If the vehicle is fitted with the START - STOP system there is an automatic re-
duction of the idling. If the engine is stopped on vehicles without START-STOP
system, such as when waiting in a traffic jam, the fuel economy is already
greater after 30 - 40 s than the fuel quantity which is required for engine re-
start.
Avoid short distances
When driving a short distance of less than about 4 km, the engine cannot
reach its operating temperature. As long as the engine has not reached oper-
ating temperature, the fuel consumption is significantly higher than with the
engine hot.
Pay attention to the correct tyre inflation pressure being maintained
Further information » page 176.
Avoid unnecessary ballast
Per 100 kg of weight, consumption increases by about 0.3 l/100 km. At a speed
of 100 - 120 km/h, a vehicle fitted with a roof rack cross member without a load
will use about 10 % more fuel than normal due to the increased aerodynamic
drag.
Saving electricity
Only turn on electrical consumers (e.g. seat, window and mirror heating, etc.)
for as long as necessary.
Use the cooling system economically
The air conditioning system compressor uses power from the engine when in
cooling mode, which will affect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or the doors of a vehicle for which the
interior has been strongly heated through the effect of direct sunlight in order
to allow the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be on if the windows are open.

Park Assist (hereinafter referred to as system) helps drivers park in suitable
parallel and perpendicular parking places or also to manoeuvre out of parallel
parking spaces.
The system takes over the steering movements when parking or leaving a
parking space. The driver operates the pedals and the shift lever or gear selec-
tor.
The state in which the steering wheel is operated by the system, is referred to
as parking operation.
The Park Assist is an extension of the parking aid » page 131 and operates on
the basis of data collected by the ultrasonic sensors.
For this reason, the chapter on the parking aid is to be read carefully and the safety notes are to be observed.
WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 127, in section Introduction .■
During the parking process, the system automatically performs rapid
steering movements. While it is doing so, do not place your hands between
the steering wheel – risk of injury!
■
During a parking manoeuvre on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
ice, etc.) you may stray from the calculated road. Therefore we suggest that
you do not use the system in such situations.
CAUTION
The correct evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure de-
pends on the circumference of the wheels on the vehicle.■
The system only works correctly if the vehicle is fitted with the wheel size
approved by the manufacturer.
■
Abstain from using the system when the vehicle is fitted with snow chains or
a temporary spare wheel.
■
If wheels other than those approved by the manufacturer are mounted, the
resulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This
can be avoided by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
CAUTION
If other vehicles are parked behind the kerb or on it, the system can also guide
your vehicle beyond the kerb or onto it. Ensure that the wheels or the wheel
rims of your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.
Note
■ We recommend performing the parking at a safe speed to about 5 km / h.■The driver can stop the parking process at any time by pressing the symbol
key 
» Fig. 149 on page 136 or by a driver steering intervention.
Functioning
Read and observe
