Control indicator 8 3 97.
Lighting119The high beam assist is activated by
pushing the indicator lever twice at a
speed above 40 km/h.
The green control indicator f
illuminates continuously when the
assist is activated, the blue one 7
illuminates when high beam is on.
Control indicator f 3 97.
Deactivation
Push indicator lever once. It is also
deactivated when front fog lights are switched on.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is on, the high beam
assist will be deactivated.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is off, the high beam assist will remain activated.
The latest setting of the high beam
assist will remain after the ignition is
switched on again.Corner lighting
On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the indicator light signal, an additional left or right reflector is switched on
which illuminates the road in the
direction of travel. It is activated up to
a speed of 40 km/h.
Reversing function
To assist driver's orientation when
parking, both corner lights and
reversing light illuminate when
headlights are on and reverse gear is engaged. They remain illuminated for
a short time after disengaging reverse gear or until driving faster than
7 km/h in a forward gear.
Hazard warning flashers
Operated by pressing ¨.
In the event of an accident with airbag
deployment, the hazard warning
flashers are activated automatically.
Driving and operating151In the event of a fault, control indicator
g illuminates. Additionally, a
warning message is displayed in the
Driver Information Centre. Vehicle
messages 3 104.
Continued driving is restricted or not
possible, depending on the fault.
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.Brakes
The brake system comprises two
independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can
still be braked using the other brake
circuit. However, braking effect is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. Considerably
more force is needed for this. The
braking distance is extended. Seek the assistance of a workshop before
continuing the journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal has
been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed.
Control indicator R 3 94.
Antilock brake system
Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.ABS starts to regulate brake pressure as soon as a wheel shows a tendency to lock. The vehicle remains
steerable, even during hard braking.
ABS control is made apparent
through a pulse in the brake pedal
and the noise of the regulation
process.
For optimum braking, keep the brake
pedal fully depressed throughout the
braking process, despite the fact that
the pedal is pulsating. Do not reduce
the pressure on the pedal.
After starting-off the system performs a self-test which may be audible.
Control indicator u 3 94.
Adaptive brake light
During full braking, all three brake
lights flash for the duration of ABS
control.
Driving and operating175Functionality
