functions
The following Light functions depend on which
equipment is fitted in your vehicle and work only
when the Light switch is set to AUTO.
Static cornering light (turning light)* (on
vehicles with LED headlights) -the turning Light
is automatically activated when the steering
wheel angle exceeds a specified value (up to
about 70 km/h) or when the turn signals are
switched on (up to about 40 km/h). This feature
provides better illumination at the side of the ve­
hicle when you turn off at a junction.
Motorway light* (on vehicles with LED head­
lights) -this function adjusts the vehicle Lighting
on motorways, according to your speed.
Speed-dependent light distribution* (on
vehicles with LED headlights) -this function ad­
justs the light distribution as required in towns,
on motorways and on other main roads. Intersec­
tions can also be illuminated if your vehicle is

)
If you drive a right-hand drive vehicle in a left­
hand drive country, or vice versa, it is not neces­
sary to adjust the headlights, as they are de­
signed for use when driving on the left or right.
A WARNING
- The automatic headlights* are only intended
to assist the driver. The driver must always
ensure that the headlights are used when
required, and may have to switch them on
manually when the Light conditions or visi­
bility are poor. For example, the light sen­
sors are not able to detect fog. Therefore,
you should always switch on the dipped
headlights io in these conditions and when
driving after dark.
- To avoid dazzling the traffic behind you, the
rear fog light should only be used in accord-
ance with statutory regulations.

If the battery has been losing charge for a
while, the side lights or parking lights may
be switched off automatically. Always park
your car in a safe and suitably lit place ac­
cording to the applicable regulations. Avoid
using the side lights for long periods (sever­
al hours). If possible, switch the left or right
parking lights on.

- On vehicles for some markets, the rear
lights switch on together with the daytime
running lights.
- In cool or damp weather, the inside of the
headlights, turn signals or rear lights can
sometimes mist up, due to the temperature
difference between the interior and exterior
of the car. They should clear again partially
or completely soon after you switch on the
headlights. This phenomenon has no influ­
ence on the life expectancy of the vehicle
lights. Lights

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.

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.

the dipped beam headlights must be on and the
main beam assist must be activated on the info­
tainment system¢ page 47.
