Main beam assist
Applies to: vehicles with main beam assist
The main beam assist automatically switches
the main beam headlights on or off depending
on the surrounding light conditions.
A sensor (Located in the mounting for the interior
mirror) detects light sources from other road
users. The main beams are activated or deactiva­
ted automatically depending on the position of
vehicles on either side of the road, on the road
speed, and on other traffic and ambient condi­
tions.
On vehicles with matrix LED headlights, individu­
al segments of the main beam are activated or
deactivated. The relevant sector in front of the
vehicle is masked, while the surrounding areas
remain lit. The ambient surroundings are thus il­
luminated optimally without dazzling other road
users.
Activating the main beam assist
Important: The light switch must be set to AUTO,
the dipped beam headlights must be on and the
main beam assist must be activated on the info­
tainment system¢ page 47.

CD- Intermittent wipe. Move switch @ to the left
or to the right to increase or reduce the wiper de­
lay interval. If your vehicle is equipped with the
rain sensor*, the windscreen wipers will be acti­
vated automatically in the rain as long as the ve­
hicle has been moving faster than approx. 4 km/
ha t least once. The higher the sensitivity level for
the rain sensor* is (i.e. the further to the right
the position of switch @ is), the sooner the wind­
screen wipers react to moisture on the wind­
screen. You can deactivate the rain sensor mode*
on the infotainment system (this will activate the
intermittent wipe mode). Select the following on
the infotainment system: !MENU! button> Car >
left control button > Driver assist> Rain sensor >

A WARNING
- The rain sensor* is only intended to assist
the driver. The driver is still obliged to man­
ually operate the windscreen wipers as re­
quired depending on visibility.
- Do not use water-repellent coatings on the
windscreen. In bad visibility conditions such
as light rain, low sun or when driving at
night these coatings can cause increased
dazzle, which is a serious safety hazard.
Such coatings can also cause the wiper
blades to judder.
- Poor visibility can cause accidents. Always
ensure that the wiper blades are in good
condition ¢ page 51, Changing the wind­
screen wiper blades.
CD CAUTION
- In icy conditions, check that the wiper
blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If
the wiper blades are frozen to the wind­
screen when you switch on the windscreen
wipers, this could damage the wiper blades.
- Make sure you switch off the windscreen
wiper system (lever in position 0) before you
use an automatic car wash. This will avoid
inadvertent triggering of the wipers and
possible damage to the wiper system.
i Note
- The windscreen wipers are deactivated
when the ignition is switched off. You can
activate the windscreen wipers after switch­
ing the ignition on again by moving the
windscreen wiper lever to any position.

CX) For
a comfortable climate inside the vehicle:
- In the summer, adjust the temperature to just
a few degrees below the outside temperature
- Do not turn the blower up too high
- Do not point the air outlets directly at the occu-
pants
� Adjusting the blower speed
The rotary control (D can be used to adjust the
blower speed in small steps. You should leave
the blower on at a low setting to prevent the win­
dows from misting up and to ensure that the ve­
hicle interior is constantly ventilated. To demist

� Switching air recirculation on/off
In air recirculation mode, the air from the interi­
or of the vehicle is filtered and recirculated. This
setting prevents fumes etc. from entering the in­
terior. We recommend switching on the air recir­
culation mode when driving through a tunnel or
in traff ic queues ¢,&.

Switching rear window heating on/
off
If the rear window heating is activated with the
ignition switched on, the battery management
determines whether or not the battery charge
level is sufficient for the rear window heating to
be switched on. Otherwise the rear window heat­
ing operates when the engine is running, and
switches off automatically after about
10 -20 minutes, depending on the outside tem­
perature.
To switch on the rear window heating perma­
nently, press and hold the !lliil REAR! button for at
least two seconds. This setting will be stored for
approximately 15 minutes after the ignition is
switched off.
A WARNING
For reasons of safety you should not leave the
air recirculation switched on for too long. This
mode prevents fresh air from entering the ve­
hicle, so the windows can mist over if the air
cooling is switched off. Bad visibility can
cause an accident.

General notes
Running in
A new vehicle should be run in over a distance of
1,500 km. For the first 1,000 km the engine
speed should not exceed 2/3 of the maximum
permissible engine speed -do not use full throt­
tle. From 1,000 to 1,500 km you can gradually
increase the engine rpm and road speed.
During its first few hours of running, the internal
friction in the engine is greater than later on
when all the moving parts have bedded down.
How the vehicle is driven for the first 1,500 km
also influences the engine quality. After this peri­
od you should continue driving at moderate en­
gine speeds, in particular when the engine is
cold. This helps to reduce wear and tear on the
engine and increases the potential mileage which
can be covered by the engine.
You should also avoid driving with the engine
speed too low. Change down to a lower gear
when the engine no longer runs "smoothly". Ex­
cessively high engine speeds are prevented by an
automatic rev limiter.
Letting the engine warm up/cool down
Applies to: Sand RS models
You can reduce the amount of wear and tear on
your vehicle during a sporty driving session sim­
ply by adopting a more restrained driving style
while the engine is warming up and cooling
down.
When the engine is cold, the engine speed is limi­
ted so that the full range of engine power is not
available. Once the engine has reached operating
temperature, the rev Limit moves to a higher
range of engine speeds. In addition, the tyres will
not develop their full grip potential until they
have had a chance to warm up on the road.
Even though the engine continues to be cooled
after you switch it off, it is particularly important
to give it time to cool down before parking. The
engine, brakes, exhaust system and gearbox will
66 all
reach very high temperatures when you adopt
a sporty driving style. Before you park the vehi­
cle, allow it to cool down to normal temperature
by driving at moderate engine speeds for several
miles.
Avoiding damage to the car
CD CAUTION
Take care not to damage low-mounted parts
of the car (such as the spoiler or exhaust sys­
tem) on steep ramps, uneven road surfaces or
roadside kerbs, etc. This applies especially to
vehicles with low ground clearance and to all
vehicles when fully laden.
Driving through water on roads
Please note the following in order to prevent
damage to the vehicle when driving through wa­
ter (e.g. on flooded roads):
- The water level must not be higher than the ve­
hicle's underbody.
- Do not drive faster than walking pace.
A WARNING
After driving through water, mud, sludge,
etc., the braking effect can be delayed slightly
due to moisture on the discs and brake pads.
Applying the brakes carefully several times
will remove the moisture and restore the full
braking effect.
CD CAUTION
- Parts of the vehicle (e.g. engine, gearbox,
running gear or electrical components) can
be badly damaged when driving through
water.
- Always switch off the start/stop system*
¢ page 71 before driving through water.
i Note
- It is advisable to check the depth at the
deepest point before approaching the wa­
ter.
