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".
