WARNING
The car's audio system is not able to deter- mine when daylight is too weak or sufficientlystrong, e.g. in fog and rain, in all situations. The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the car is driven with a beam pattern suit-able for the traffic situation and in accordancewith applicable traffic regulations.
Thumbwheel in the instrument panel
Thumbwheel for adjusting interior brightness
Thumbwheel for headlamp levelling
A car with LED 21
headlamps * has automatic
headlamp levelling and therefore does not have the thumbwheel for headlamp levelling.
Adjusting the interior brightness
The lamps inside the car come on differently depending on the ignition position used. The thumbwheel adjusts the brightness of display lighting, control lighting, ambient light and ambi- ence light *.
Headlamp levelling
The load in the car changes the vertical align- ment of the headlamp beam, which could dazzleoncoming motorists. Avoid this by adjusting theheight of the beam. Lower the beam if the car isheavily laden. For different load cases and settings, see the section "Headlamp levelling".

The parking heater
*, in a cold climate, warms
up both the passenger compartment and the engine.
• The ventilation, in a hot climate, cools thepassenger compartment to the current outertemperature.
NOTE
During preconditioning of the passenger compartment, the car works to reach comforttemperature and not the temperature set inthe climate control system.
Climate comfort retentionThe climate in the car's passenger compartment can be maintained while the car is parked, e.g. ifthe engine needs to be switched off but thedriver or passenger(s) wants to remain in the carand maintain the level of climate comfort. Starting climate comfort retention is only possible via direct start.
