erty can be damaged if struck when closing.



— For security reasons, we recommend that
you clear the programmed buttons before
selling the vehicle.

Power top

Power top
Automatic power top
General information
The power top opens and closes automatically.
When open, the power top is stored completely
in the power top compartment. The power top
can be opened or closed at speeds up to 30 mph
(50 km/h). The power top will not open when the
temperature is below 5 °F (-15 °C).
Under normal conditions, the power top is wind-
and waterproof. In rare cases, small droplets of
water may form under extreme weather condi-
tions such as torrential or prolonged rain. That is
normal and no cause for concern.
Follow
the care instructions to keep the power
top free of leaks and to maintain its appearance
=> page 262, Care and cleaning. Also observe the
following:
— Open and stow the power top only when it is
clean and dry. Stowing the power top when it is
damp can create imprints in it, and if it is left
that way for long periods of time, mildew and
other damage can form. To prevent scratching
or damaging the power top, do not use any
sharp-edged objects to remove ice and snow.
The rear window may be cleared with a stand-
ard ice scraper.
— Do not leave the power top open for several
weeks or the creases in it may become discol-
ored.
— Do not open the power top when the tempera-
ture is below 32 °F (0 °C). The fabric in the
power top loses elasticity in sub-zero tempera-
tures.

— USA models: the daytime running lights switch
on automatically when the ignition is switched
on and the light switch is set to the O or the
AUTO position (only in daylight). The Daytime
running lights can be switched on and off in

depending on brightness, for example in twilight,
during rain or in tunnels.
300: - Parking lights
ZO - Low beam headlights

All-weather lights*
In vehicles with all-weather lights, the front
lights are adjusted automatically so that you are
38
less likely to see glare from your own headlights,
for example when driving on a wet road.
Automatic dynamic headlight range control
system*
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlight range
control system so that there is less glare for on-
coming traffic if the vehicle load changes. The
headlight range also adjusts automatically when
braking and accelerating.
Light functions
The following light functions may be available
depending on vehicle equipment and only func-
tion when the light switch is in the AUTO posi-
tion.
Static cornering light* (vehicles with LED head-
lights) - the cornering light switches on automat-
ically when the steering wheel is turned at a cer-
tain angle at speeds up to approximately 44 mph
(70 km/h) and when the turn signal is activated
at speeds up to approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h). The area to the side of the vehicle is
illuminated better when turning.
Highway light function* (vehicles with LED head-
lights) - this function adapts the lighting for
highway driving based on vehicle speed.
Speed dependent light distribution* (vehicles
with
LED headlights) - the speed dependent light
distribution adapts the light in towns and on
highways or expressways. Intersections can also
be illuminated on vehicles with a navigation sys-
tem*.

ZA\ WARNING
— Automatic headlights* are only intended to
assist the driver. They do not relieve the
driver of responsibility to check the head-
lights and to turn them on manually based
on the current light and visibility conditions.
For example, fog cannot be detected by the
light sensors. So always switch on the low
beams under these weather conditions and
when driving in the dark ZO.
—To reduce glare for traffic behind your vehi-
cle, the rear fog lights* should only be

turned on in accordance with the legal >

8S8012721BA
Lights and Vision



regulations in the country where you are op-
erating the vehicle.
— If the battery has been discharging for a
while, the parking light may switch off auto-
matically. Always make sure your vehicle is
parked and adequately illuminated accord-
ing to the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle. Avoid
using the parking lights for several hours.
— Observe the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle when
using the lighting system that is described.

@ Tips
— The light sensor for the automatic head-
lights* is in the rearview mirror mount. Do
not place any stickers in this area on the
windshield.
— Some exterior lighting functions can be ad-
justed > page 39.
— If you turn off the ignition while the exterior
lights are on and open the door, a warning
tone sounds.
— In some markets, the tail lights will switch
on when the daytime running lights switch
on.
—In cool or damp weather, the inside of the
headlights, turn signals, and tail lights can
fog
over due to the temperature difference
between the inside and outside. They will
clear shortly after switching them on. This
does not affect the service life of the light-
ing.

z o

Fig. 42 Driver's door: knob for the exterior mirrors
Turn the knob to the desired position:
CY/® - Adjusts the left/right exterior mirror.
Move the knob in the desired direction.
GA - Heats the mirror glass depending on the out-
side temperature.
SA - Folds the exterior mirrors*. In the Infotain-
ment system, you can select if the mirrors fold in
automatically when you lock the vehicle
=> page 26.
Front passenger's exterior mirror tilt
function*
To help you see the curb when backing into a
parking space, the surface of the mirror tilts
slightly. For this to happen, the knob must be in
the position for the front passenger's exterior
mirror.
You can adjust the tilted mirror surface by turn-
ing the knob in the desired direction. When you
move out of reverse and into another gear, the
new mirror position is stored and assigned to the
key you are using.
The mirror goes back into its original position
once you drive forward faster than 9 mph
(15 km/h) or turn the ignition off.
Z\ WARNING
Curved mirror surfaces (convex) enlarge the
field of vision. However, they make objects in
the mirror appear smaller and farther away.
You may estimate incorrectly when you use
these mirrors to gauge your distance from the
vehicles behind you when changing lanes,
which increases the risk of an accident.
Qo Note
If the mirror housing was moved by outside
forces (such as an impact when maneuver-
ing), you must use the power folding function
to fold the mirror all the way out. The mirror
housing must not be moved back into place
by hand because this could impair the func-
tion of the mirror mechanism.
G@) Tips
If the power adjusting function malfunctions,
the glass in both mirrors can be adjusted by
pressing on the edge of it by hand.
