adapts according to the value of the light
beam of the headlight to the level of load of
the vehicle. This offers the driver optimum vis-
ibility and the headlights do not dazzle on-
coming drivers ››› .
The headlights can only be adjust ed when
the dipped beam is s
witched on.
To adjust, turn the control ››› Fig. 82: Value Vehicle load status

If the vehicle load does not correspond to those
sho wn in the t
able, it is possible to select intermediary
positions. WARNING
Heavy objects in the vehicle may mean
that the headlights dazzl e and distr
act oth-
er drivers. This could result in a serious ac-
cident.

Air conditioning
Air conditioning
Heating, v entil
ation and
cooling
Introduction The Climatr
onic
cools and dehumidifies the
air. Its optimum performance is achieved with
the windows closed.
To switch a specific function on, press the ap-
propriate button. Press the button again to
switch off the function.
The LED on each control lights up to indicate
that the respective function of a control has
been switched on.
Dust and pollen filter
The dust and pollen filter with its activated
charcoal cartridge serves as a barrier
against impurities in the air taken into the ve-
hicle interior.
The dust and pollen filter must be changed
regularly so that air conditioner performance
is not adversely affected.
If the filter loses efficiency prematurely due to
use in areas with very high levels of air pollu-
tion, the filter must be changed more fre-
quently than stated in the Service Schedule. WARNING
Reduced visibility through the windows in-
cr eases the risk of serious accidents.

Braking and parking
If the electromechanical brake servo is not
w orking, the br
ake pedal must be pressed
harder, as the braking distance increases due
to the lack of assistance from the servo brake.
Brake blending
The brake energy recuperation can generate
a braking effect ››› page 139. This braking ef-
fect depends on the selected driving pro-
gramme and the level of charge of the high-
voltage battery. If the braking effect caused
by the recuperation is very intense, the vehi-
cle’s brake lights with turn on. The electric en-
gine, when operating as an alternator, can
generate braking torque on the front wheels
based on the RPM and the temperature and
charge level of the high-voltage battery.
These variable parameters cause fluctuating
electric decelerations which are hydraulical-
ly compensated according to the driver’s de-
sires. This function is called “brake blending”
and it combines mechanical braking with the
engine brake effect. WARNING
Driving at high speed on icy, slippery wet
gr ound can r
esult in loss of vehicle control
and serious injury to the driver and passen-
gers.
