Headlights when driving
abroad The asymmetrical headlight beam
extends visibility at the edge of the
road at the passenger side.
However, when driving in countries
where traffic drives on the opposite
side of the road, adjust the headlights to prevent dazzling of oncoming
traffic.

106LightingAdaptive forward lighting
The Adaptive forward lighting
functions are only available with Bi-
Xenon headlights. Light range, light
distribution and intensity of light are
variably triggered depending on the
light conditions, weather and road
type.
Playstreet lightingActivated automatically at low speed
up to approx. 20 mph. The light beam
is turned at an angle of -5°/3° to the
roadside.
Town lighting Activated automatically at a speed up
to approx. 30 mph and when street
lights are detected by the light sensor. The light range is reduced by an
extended light distribution.
Country lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
range between approx. 30 and
72 mph. The beam of light and the
brightness is different between the
left and the right side.Motorway lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
above approx. 72 mph and minimal
steering movements. It switches on
after a delay or directly when the vehicle is powerfully accelerated. The
light beam is longer and brighter.
Adverse weather lighting
Activated automatically up to a speed of approx. 43 mph, when the rain
sensor recognises condensation or
the wiper operates continuously. The
range, distribution and light intensity
is regulated variably depending on visibility.Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Control indicator f 3 88.
Corner lighting On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which
illuminates the road at an right angle
to the direction of travel. It is activated up to a speed of 25 mph.
Control indicator f 3 88.

Lighting107
Reversing functionIf the headlights are on and reverse
gear is engaged, both corner lights
are switched on. They remain
illuminated for 20 seconds after
disengaging reverse gear or until
driving faster than 10 mph in a
forward gear.
High beam assist
This feature allows high beam as
main driving light by night and when
vehicle speed is faster than 25 mph.
It switches to low beam when: ■ the camera in the windscreen detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles
■ the vehicle speed is slower than 12 mph
■ it is foggy or snowy
■ driving in urban areasActivation
The high beam assist is activated by
pushing the indicator lever twice at a
speed above 25 mph.
The green control indicator l
illuminates continuously when the
assist is activated, the blue one 7
illuminates when high beam is on.
Control indicator l 3 88.
Deactivation
Push indicator lever once. It is also
deactivated when front or rear 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.
High beam assist is always active
after the ignition is switched on.
Dynamic automatic headlight
levelling
To prevent oncoming traffic from dazzle, headlight levelling is
automatically adjusted based on
inclination information measured by
front and rear axle, acceleration or
deceleration and vehicle speed.
Fault in Adaptive forward
lighting system When the system detects a failure in
the Adaptive forward lighting system,
the system moves to a preset position to avoid dazzling of oncoming traffic.
Have the cause of the failure
remedied by a workshop as soon as
possible.

Operated with the ¨ button.
Turn and lane-change
signalslever up=right turn signallever down=left turn signal
If the lever is moved past the
resistance point, the turn signal is
switched on constantly. When the
steering wheel moves back, the turn
signal is automatically deactivated.
For three flashes, e.g. when changing lanes, press the lever until resistance
is felt and then release.
Move the lever to the resistance point
and hold for longer indication.
Switch the turn signal off manually by moving the lever to its original
position.

Driving and operating129
The deactivation of the AWD system
will be indicated by a message on the
Driver Information Centre.
If a service message or warning
code S73 is displayed on the Driver Information Centre, there is a
malfunction in the AWD system. Seek the assistance of a workshop.
Vehicle messages 3 94, Towing the

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 your 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 85.
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 86.
Adaptive brake light
During full braking, all three brake
lights flash for the duration of ABS
control.

Driving and operating141
Deactivation
The camera is deactivated when a certain forward speed is exceeded or
if reverse gear is not engaged for
approx. 10 seconds.
Activation or deactivation of the rear
view camera can be changed in the menu Settings in the Info-Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 99.
Fault Fault messages are displayed with a9 on the top line of the Info-Display.
The rear view camera may not

lens,
■ ice, snow, mud, or anything else covers the camera lens. Clean the
lens, rinse it with water, and wipe it
with a soft cloth,
■ the tailgate is not closed correctly,
■ the vehicle had a rear end accident,
■ there are extreme temperature changes.Traffic sign assistant
