Headlights when driving
abroad The asymmetrical headlight beam
extends visibility at the edge of the
road at the passenger side.
However, when driving in countries
where traffic drives on the opposite
side of the road, adjust the headlights to prevent dazzling of oncoming
traffic.

106Lighting
Vehicles with halogen headlight
system
The adjusting screws are located
above the headlight.
Turn the adjusting screws with the
screwdriver clockwise by half a turn.
For deactivation, turn the adjusting
screws counterclockwise by half a
turn.
Caution
Have the adjustment of the
headlights checked after
deactivation.
We recommend consulting a
workshop.
Vehicles with adaptive forward
lighting system
1. Key in ignition switch.
2. Pull turn signal lever and hold (headlight flash).
3. Switch on ignition.
4. After about 3 seconds, a signal sounds.
The headlights are aimed
automatically.
Every time the ignition is switched on,
f flashes as a reminder for approx. 4
seconds.
For deactivation operate the same
procedure as described above. f will
not flash when function is
deactivated.
Control indicator f 3 89.
Daytime running lights
Daytime running lights increase
visibility of the vehicle during daylight.
They are switched on automatically
when ignition is on.

Lighting107Adaptive forward lighting
The Adaptive forward lighting
functions are only available with Bi-
Xenon headlights. Light range, light
distribution and intensity of light are
variably triggered depending on the
light conditions, weather and road
type.
Playstreet lighting
Activated automatically at low speed
up to approx. 20 mph. The light beam is turned at an angle of -5°/3° to the
roadside.
Town lighting
Activated automatically at a speed up to approx. 30 mph and when streetlights are detected by the light sensor.
The light range is reduced by an
extended light distribution.
Country lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
range between approx. 30 and
72 mph. The beam of light and the
brightness is different between the
left and the right side.Motorway lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
above approx. 72 mph and minimal steering movements. It switches on
after a delay or directly when the vehicle is powerfully accelerated. The
light beam is longer and brighter.
Adverse weather lighting
Activated automatically up to a speed
of approx. 43 mph, when the rain
sensor recognises condensation or the wiper operates continuously. The
range, distribution and light intensity
is regulated variably depending on visibility.Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Control indicator f 3 89.
Corner lighting On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which
illuminates the road at an right angle
to the direction of travel. It is activated up to a speed of 25 mph.
Control indicator f 3 89.

108Lighting
Reversing functionIf the headlights are on and reverse
gear is engaged, both corner lights
are switched on. They remain
illuminated for 20 seconds after
disengaging reverse gear or until
driving faster than 10 mph in a
forward gear.
High beam assist
This feature allows high beam as
main driving light by night and when
vehicle speed is faster than 25 mph.
It switches to low beam when: ■ the camera in the windscreen detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles
■ the vehicle speed is slower than 12 mph
■ it is foggy or snowy
■ driving in urban areasActivation
The high beam assist is activated by
pushing the indicator lever twice at a
speed above 25 mph.
The green control indicator l
illuminates continuously when the
assist is activated, the blue one 7
illuminates when high beam is on.
Control indicator l 3 88.
Deactivation
Push indicator lever once. It is also
deactivated when front or rear fog
lights are switched on.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is on, the high beam
assist will be deactivated.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is off, the high beam
assist will remain activated.
High beam assist is always active
after the ignition is switched on.
Dynamic automatic headlight
levelling
To prevent oncoming traffic from dazzle, headlight levelling is
automatically adjusted based on
inclination information measured by
front and rear axle, acceleration or
deceleration and vehicle speed.
Fault in Adaptive forward
lighting system When the system detects a failure in
the Adaptive forward lighting system,
the system moves to a preset position to avoid dazzling of oncoming traffic.
Have the cause of the failure
remedied by a workshop as soon as
possible.

Operated with the r button.
Light switch in position AUTO:
switching on rear fog light will switch

Light switch in position 8: rear fog
light can only be switched on with
front fog lights.
Reversing lights
The reversing light comes on when
the ignition is on and reverse gear is
selected.
Misted light covers
The inside of the light housing may
mist up briefly in poor, wet and cold weather conditions, in heavy rain or
after washing. The mist disappears
quickly by itself; to help switch on the
headlights.Interior lighting
