COMING HOME / LEAVING HOME
Read and observe
on page 53 first.
The function COMING HOME ensures that the vehicle's environment is illumi-
nated after switching off the ignition and opening the driver's door.
The function LEAVING HOME ensures that the vehicle's environment is illumi-
nated after unlocking the vehicle with the radio remote control unit.
The function switches the light on only if there is poorer visibility and the light
switch is in the position .
The two functions can be activated/deactivated and set in Infotainment
» Owner´s Manual - Infotainment .
CAUTION
■
Poorer visibility is detected by a sensor mounted below the windscreen in
the holder of the inside mirror or in the control panel. Do not cover the sensor -
this can disrupt the function of the system.■
If this option is always enabled, then the battery is heavily loaded.
1)
If the two switch-on variants are conflicting (e.g. if the front wheels are turned to the left and the right
turn signal light is switched on), the turn signal light has the higher priority.

The windshield wipers and the windshield washer system only operate if the
ignition is switched on.
WARNINGDo not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. The window washer fluid could other-
wise freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front. 12AB59Lights and visibility

CAUTION■If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from
the windscreen. The wipers must be set to the service position to raise them
off the windscreen » page 150.■
In cold temperatures and during the winter, check before switching on the
ignition that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If the wind-
screen wipers are switched on when the blades are frozen to the windscreen,
this may damage both the blades and windscreen wiper motor.
■
Carefully separate frozen windscreen wiper blades from the windscreen and
free from snow and ice.
■
Handle the windscreen wipers with care - there is a risk of damage to the
windscreen by the windscreen wiper arms.
■
Do not switch on the ignition when the wiper arm is raised from the wind-
screen - there is a risk of damage to the bonnet by the wiper arms.
Note
Depending on vehicle equipment, the windscreen washer jets can be heated
automatically after starting the engine.

the windscreen under the following conditions.
The ignition is switched on.

Rear view mirror

This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror dimming

Exterior mirrors
62WARNINGExterior mirrors increase the field of view, however, they make objects ap-
pear smaller and further away. Therefore, use the interior mirror whenever
possible, for assessing the distances to the vehicles following behind.

Read and observe on page 61 first.
Mirrors with manual dimming » Fig. 51 -
Basic mirror position (not darkened)
Mirror blackout
Mirror with automatic dimming
The mirror dimming » Fig. 51 -
is automatically controlled after the engine
start.
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror moves back into the basic position (not dimmed).
WARNING■ Attach external devices (e.g. navigation system) not in the vicinity of the
mirror with automatic dimming . The illuminated display of an external de-
vice can affect the function of the rear-view mirror - it could cause an acci-
dent.■
The automatic dimming mirror only functions smoothly if the light falling
on the sensors is not compromised (e.g. by the sunshade at the back). The
sensors are located on the front and back of the mirror.
WARNING■ The mirrors with automatic dimming contain electrolyte fluid which may
leak if the mirror glass is broken - this can irritate skin, eyes and the respi-
ratory system.■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immedi-
ately wash the affected area for a few minutes long with a lot of water. If
necessary get medical assistance.
