braking and accelerating.
Light functions
The following light functions are available de-
pending on vehicle equipment and only function
when the light switch is in the AUTO position.
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. The driver is still responsi-
ble for controlling the headlights and may
need to switch them on and off manually
depending on 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. >

Lights and Vision


—To reduce glare for traffic behind your vehi-
cle, the rear fog lights* should only be
turned on in accordance with the legal regu-
lations in the country where you are operat-
ing 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.
G) Tips
— When using lighting equipment, the driver
is responsible for adhering to any local ap-
plicable regulations while driving and when
parking the vehicle.
— 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 37.
— 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.

— If the vehicle has already been driven
— If the Start/Stop system has stopped the en-
gine
— If the driver's door is opened
— If the driver's safety belt is unbuckled
— If the brake pedal is not pressed

nutes. See owner's manual appears in the Info-
tainment system display. The side marker lights
