Lighting115Headlights when driving
abroad
The asymmetrical headlight beam
extends visibility at the edge of the
road at the passenger side.
However, when driving in countries
where traffic drives on the opposite
side of the road, adjust the headlights to prevent dazzling of oncoming
traffic.
Have the headlights adjusted by a
workshop.
Daytime running lights Daytime running lights increase
visibility of the vehicle during daylight.
The lights operate automatically
when the ignition is switched on.
If the vehicle is equipped with the
automatic light control function, the
system switches between daytime
running lights and headlights
automatically depending on the
lighting conditions.
Automatic light control 3 112.Cornering lights
Depending on the steering angle,
vehicle speed and gear selected
when cornering, an additional light
will illuminate the corner of the road
on the respective side when the
headlights are switched on.
Hazard warning flashers

In the event of hard braking, the
hazard warning flashers may turn on automatically. Switch off by pressing
¨ .
Turn lightsstalk up:right turn lightstalk down:left turn light
A resistance point can be felt when
moving the stalk.
Constant flashing is activated when
the stalk is being moved beyond the
resistance point. It is deactivated
when the steering wheel is moved in
the opposite direction or stalk is
manually moved back to its neutral
position.

Driving and operating169Conditions for re-activation
The Active emergency brake system
can only be re-activated if:
● the gear lever is not in neutral
● parking brake is not activated
● vehicle is not cornering
System limitations In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to traffic signs
in a curve or due to vehicles in
another lane. This is normal
operation, the vehicle does not need
service. Firmly apply the accelerator
pedal to override the automatic
braking if the situation and the
surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance is
limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● detecting all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors,
muddy vehicles, etc.● detecting a vehicle when weather
limits visibility, such as in fog,
rain, or snow
● driving during nighttime
● sensor in the windscreen or radar
unit behind the front bumper
blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt, etc.
● windscreen damaged or affected
by foreign objects, e.g. stickers
Complete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
Fault
In case the system requires a service,
a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
Additionally, warning lights l and j
illuminate at the same time.
When the system detects that its
function is not available, warning
lights l or j illuminates and stays
on. Additionally, a message in the
Driver Information Centre appear.
The system may be temporarilydisrupted (for example: radar or
camera obscured by dirt, mud, snow
etc.). In this case,park the vehicle and switch off the engine. Clean the
windscreen area around the camera
and the detection zone of the radar in the front bumper. When the warning
lights and messages still appear after
starting the vehicle again, seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Parking assist9 Warning
It is the driver who bears full
responsibility for the parking
manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area while reversing and using the rear parking assist system.
The parking assist measures the
distance between the vehicle and
obstacles behind the vehicle. It
informs and warns the driver by giving acoustic signals.

Driving and operating173The guide line intervals are as
follows:3 (red):30 cm4 (yellow):70 cm5 (green):150 cmSettings
Settings, e.g. brightness, can be set via the Infotainment system. Refer to Infotainment manual for further
information.
Deactivation
The camera is deactivated after a
delay if reverse gear is not engaged.
Fault
The rear view camera may not
operate properly when:
● the surrounding is dark
● the sun or the beam of headlights
is shining directly into the camera lens
● ice, snow, mud, or anything else covers the camera lens. Clean
the lens, rinse it with water, and
wipe it with a soft cloth
● the rear doors are not closed correctly
● the vehicle had a rear-end accident
● there are extreme temperature changes
Lane departure warning The lane departure warning systemuses a front camera to observe the
lane markings between which the
vehicle is driving. The system detects
lane changes and warns the driver in
the event of an unintended lane
change via visual and acoustic
signals.
Criteria for the detection of an
unintended lane change are:
● no operation of turn lights
● no active steering
If the driver is performing these
actions, no warning will be issued.Activation
The lane departure warning system is activated by pressing ì in the roof
console. The LED in the button
extinguishes to indicate that the
system is switched on.
