SymbolSpecification
Main beam On The symbol illuminates when main beam is on and with main beamflash.
Active main beam on The symbol lights up blue when active main beam is on. Positionlamps are switched on.
Active main beam off The symbol lights up white when active main beam is off. Positionlamps are switched on.
Main beam On The symbol lights up when main beam and the position lamps areswitched on.
Front fog lamps on This symbol illuminates when the front fog lamp is switched on.
Rear fog lamp on This symbol illuminates when the rear fog lamp is switched on.
SymbolSpecification
Rain sensor on This symbol illuminates when the rain sensor is on.
Preconditioning on The symbol illuminates when the engine block and passenger com-partment heater/air conditioningare preconditioning the car.
Stability system A flashing symbol indicates that the stability system is operating. Ifthe symbol illuminates with con-stant glow then there is a fault inthe system.
Stability system, sport mode The symbol illuminates when the sport mode is activated. Sportmode allows for a more active driv-ing experience. The system thendetects whether the acceleratorpedal, steering wheel movementsand cornering are more active thanin normal driving and then allowscontrolled skidding of the rear sec-tion up to a certain level before itintervenes and stabilises the car.

Outside temperature gauge
The outside temperature gauge is shown in the driver display.
A sensor detects the temperature outside of the car.
Outside temperature gauge location in the 12-inch and 8-inch driver display.
If the car has been stationary, the gauge may dis- play a temperature reading that is too high. When the outside temperature is within the range +2°C to -5°C, a snowflake symbol is shown in thedriver display as a warning for potentially slipperyconditions. The snowflake symbol is also illumi-nated briefly in the head-up display, if the car isequipped with one.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
138Dipped beam is always switched on when the rotating ring on the stalk switch is in position
when the car's electrical system is in igni-
tion position II or when the car is running.
Tunnel detection
The car detects when it is driven into a tunnel and switches from daytime running lights todipped beam. Note that the rotating ring in the left-hand stalk switch must be in
mode for tunnel detec-
tion to work.

or . Activate main beam by moving
the stalk switch forwards. Deactivate by moving the stalk switch backwards. When main beam has been activated the
symbol illuminates in the driver display.
Active main beamActive main beam is a function which uses a camera sensor at the top edge of the windscreento detect the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights of vehicles in front, andthen switches from main beam to dipped beam.The function can also take streetlights intoaccount. Main beam is reactivated when the camera sen- sor no longer sees any oncoming vehicles orvehicles ahead.
Car with halogen headlamps
The lighting returns to main beam about a sec- ond after the camera sensor no longer detectsthe headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or therear lights from vehicles in front.

If the active main beam has the on/off functional- ity25
then the lighting returns to main beam about
a second after the camera sensor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front. If the active main beam has adaptive functional- ity 25
then, unlike what happens during conven-
tional dimming, the light beam continues to illu- minate with main beam on both sides of oncom-ing traffic or vehicles ahead - only the part of thelight beam that points directly to the vehicle isdimmed.
Adaptive functionality: Dipped beam directly towards oncoming vehicle, but continued main beam on bothsides of the vehicle.
The lighting returns to full main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longerdetects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
Activate/deactivate
The function can start while driving in the dark when the car's speed is approx. 20 km/h(12 mph) or higher. Activate/deactivate active main beam by turning the stalk switch's rotating ring to position
and release. If active main beam is deactivated while main beam is on, the lighting is immediatelyreset to dipped beam.
When active main beam is activated, the symbol
illuminates with a white glow in the driver
display. When main beam is activated, the symbol shines blue. This also applies for LED headlamps if themain beam is partially dimmed, i.e. if the lightbeam shines with slightly more than dippedbeam.

Manual operation
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the camera sensor free from ice, snow, mist anddirt. Do not stick or attach anything to the wind- screen in front of the camera sensor as thismay reduce effectiveness or cause one ormore of the systems dependent on the cam-era to stop working.
If this symbol is shown in the driver dis- play, together with the message Active
High Beam Temporarily
unavailable, then switching between
main and dipped beam must be performed man- ually. The rotating ring on the stalk switch can still be in the
position. The symbol extin-
guishes when these message are shown.
The same applies if this symbol is shown together with the message
Windscreen sensor Sensor
blocked, see Owner's manual.
Active main beam may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in situations with dense fog or heavy rain.When active main beam becomes available again,or the windscreen sensors are no longer blocked, the message goes out and the
symbol illu-
minates.
WARNING
Active main beam is an aid for using the opti- mum beam pattern when conditions arefavourable. The driver always bears responsibility for man- ually switching between main and dippedbeam when traffic situations or weather con-ditions so require.
IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching between main and dipped beam may be required:
• In heavy rain or dense fog
• In freezing rain
• In snow flurries or slush
• In moonlight
• When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
• When the traffic ahead has weak lighting
• If there are pedestrians on or beside theroad
• If there are highly reflective objects suchas signs in the vicinity of the road
• When the lighting from oncoming trafficis obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
• When there is traffic on connecting roads
• On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
• In sharp bends.

Continuous wipingRaise the stalk switch for the wipers to sweep at normal speed.
Raise the stalk switch further for the wip- ers to sweep at high speed.
IMPORTANT
Before activating the wipers - ensure that the wiper blades are not frozen in, and that anysnow or ice on the windscreen (and rear win-dow) is scraped away.
IMPORTANT
Use plenty of washer fluid when the wipers are cleaning the windscreen. The windscreenmust be wet when the windscreen wipers areoperating.

Activating/deactivating the rain sensor
The rain sensor automatically starts the wind- screen wipers based on how much water itdetects on the windscreen. Rain sensor sensitiv-ity can be adjusted with the thumbwheel on theright-hand stalk switch.
Right-hand stalk switch.
Rain sensor button
Thumbwheel sensitivity/frequency
When the rain sensor is activated, the rain sensor symbol
is shown in the driver display.
Activating the rain sensorWhen activating the rain sensor, the car must be running or the electrical system in ignition posi- tion I or II while the windscreen wiper stalk switch must be in position
0 or in the position for
a single sweep. Activate the rain sensor by pressing the rain sen- sor button
.
Press the stalk switch down for the wipers to make an extra sweep. Turn the thumbwheel upward for higher sensitiv- ity and downward for lower sensitivity. An extrasweep is made when the thumbwheel is turnedupward.
Deactivating the rain sensorDeactivate the rain sensor by pressing the rain sensor button
or moving the stalk switch
up to another wiper program. The rain sensor is deactivated automatically in ignition position 0 or when the engine is
switched off. The rain sensor is deactivated automatically when wiper blades are set in service position. The rainsensor is reactivated when service position hasbeen deactivated.
IMPORTANT
The windscreen wipers could start and be damaged in an automatic car wash. Deacti-vate the rain sensor while the car is runningor when the car's electrical system is in igni- tion position I or II. The symbol in the driver
display extinguishes.
