General notes
For reasons of safety, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you drive with the lights switched
on even during the daytime. Therefore, your
vehicle is equipped with special daytime run-
ning lamps. In some countries, operation of
the headlamps varies due to legal require-
ments and self-imposed obligations.
If you wish to drive during the daytime without
lights, switch off the daytime running lamps
function in the on-board computer
(
Ypage 190).
