Lighting115Daytime running lightsDaytime running light increases
visibility of the vehicle during daylight.
They are switched on automatically
when the engine is running.
The system switches between
daytime running lights and low beam
automatically, depending on the
lighting conditions.
LED headlights9 Warning
Do not look directly into the LED
lights to avoid damage to your
eyes.
LED headlight system contains a
variety of particular LEDs in each
headlight which enables the control of
the Adaptive forward lighting
functions.
Light distribution and intensity of light
are variably triggered depending on
the lighting conditions, road type and
driving situation. The vehicle adapts
the headlights automatically to the
situation to enable optimal light
performance for the driver.
Some Adaptive forward lighting
functions of the LED headlights can
be deactivated or activated in the
vehicle personalisation menu. Select
the relevant setting in Settings, I
Vehicle in the Info-Display. Vehicle
personalisation 3 104.
The lighting functions are only
available with light switch in position
AUTO .
Country light
Activated automatically at a speed
between 34 mph and 71 mph when
driving in rural areas. The illumination
of the current lane and the side of theroad is improved. Oncoming and
preceding vehicles are not dazzled.
Motorway light
Activated automatically at a speed
above 71 mph. Illumination is
adapted to the higher speed driven on
motorways. If there is no oncoming
traffic, the visibility on the side of the
vehicle is increased. The visibility
range raises from 70 m to 140 m
allowing distant objects to be
recognised across the entire width of
the road.
Town light
Activated automatically at a speed up to approx. 34 mph and in situations
with exterior ambient light. The light is
116Lightingwide and symmetrical. If the speed is
below 19 mph, the headlamps are
slightly swiveled to the outside to
allow an earlier recognition of of
pedestrians and objects on each side
of the road. A special beam pattern is
designed to avoid glare for other road
users.
Corner light
When turning off, depending on the
steering angle and the turn signal light, particular LEDs are triggered
which illuminate the direction of
travel. It is activated up to a speed of
25 mph.
Adverse weather light
Controlled by wiper or rain sensor and activated at rain and snowfall. The
wide light distribution – slightly
swiveled to the outside – enables
improved orientation at the edge of
the road. The intensity of the light in
the far distance is increased in order
to recognize objects and markings on
the right road side and obstacles on
the lane despite the weather
condition. Lowering the reflection on
wet roads reduces dazzling of
oncoming traffic. Adverse weather
light is activated up to a speed to 43 mph.
Curve light
Particular LEDs, based on steering
angle and speed, are additionally
triggered to improve lighting in
curves. This function is activated at
speeds from 25 mph to 43 mph and
reacts to steering angle.
High beam assist This feature allows the high beam to
function as main driving light at night.
The camera in the windscreen
detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles. Each LED on
right or left side can be triggered or
faded out particularly according to the traffic situation. This gives the best
light distribution without dazzling
other road users. Once activated,
high beam assist remains active and
switches high beam on and off
depending on surrounding
Lighting117conditions. The latest setting of the
high beam assist will remain after the
ignition is switched on again.
High beam assist includes a special
motorway mode. When driving faster
than 71 mph on motorways, the light
beam becomes smaller to avoid
dazzling of oncoming traffic. When
following vehicles ahead or passing,
mirror dazzling for these vehicles is
reduced.
Activation
Activate the high beam assist by
pressing f on the turn and lane
change lever. The LED of the button illuminates if the high beam assist is
activated. High beam is switched on
automatically at a speed above
15 mph . High beam is switched off at
a speed below 9 mph, but high beam
assist remains active.
The green control indicator f
illuminates continuously when the
high beam assist is activated, the blue one 7 illuminates when high beam is
on.
Control indicator f 3 98, 7 3 98.
Pressing indicator lever once
switches on manual high beam
without high beam assist.
High beam assist switches
automatically to low beam when:
● Driving in urban areas.
● Camera detects heavy fog.
● Front or rear fog lights are switched on.
If there are no restrictions detected,
the system switches back to high
beam.
Deactivation
Deactivate the high beam assist by
pressing f on the turn and lane
change lever
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam assist is activated and low beam is on, the high beam assist
will be deactivated. The system
changes to high beam.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam assist is activated and high beam is on, the high beam assist
will be deactivated. The system
changes to low beam.
118LightingTo reactivate the high beam assist,
flash the headlights again.
Fault in LED headlight system
When the system detects a failure in
the LED headlight system, it selects a preset position to avoid dazzling of
oncoming traffic. A warning is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Hazard warning flashers
Operated by pressing ¨.
When braking in an emergency, the
hazard warning flashers are switched
on automatically depending on the
force of deceleration. They are
switched off automatically the first
time you accelerate.
Turn and lane-change signalslever up:right turn signallever down:left turn signal
A resistance point can be felt when
moving the lever.
Constant flashing is activated when
the lever is being moved beyond the
resistance point. It is deactivated
when the steering wheel is moved in
the opposite direction or lever is
manually moved back to its neutral
position.
Activate temporary flashing by
holding the lever just before the
resistance point. Turning lights will
flash until lever is being released.
To activate three flashes, tap the
lever briefly without passing the
resistance point.
If you forget to cancel the turn and
lane-change signals for more than
twenty seconds, the volume of the
audible signal will increase if the
speed is above 40 mph.
