All-weather lights
The front lights are adjusted automatically so
that there is less glare for the driver from his or
her own lights, for example when roads are wet.
Automatic dynamic headlight range control
system
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlight range
control system so that the headlights do not
blind oncoming traffic if the vehicle load
changes. The headlight range also adjusts auto
matically when braking and accelerating.
Static cornering light*
The static cornering light depends on equipment
and only works when the light switch is in the AU·
TO position. The cornering light switches on au
tomatically at speeds up to approximately
44 mph (70 km) when the steering wheel is at a
certain angle . The area to the side of the vehicle
is illum inated better when turning.
A 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 accord
ing to the current light and visibility condi
tions . For example, fog cannot be detected
by the light sensors. So always switch on the
low beam under these weather conditions
and when driving in the dark fD.
- The rear fog lights should only be turned on
in accordance with traffic regulations, to
prevent g lare for traffic behind your vehicle.
- Please observe legal regulations when using
the lighting systems described.
(D Tips
- The light sensor for the automatic head
lights is in the rearview mirror mount.
Therefore, do not place any stickers in this
area on the windshield.

General information
Why is your seat adjustment so important?
The safety belts and the airbag system can only
provide maximum protection if the front seats are correctly adjusted .
There are various ways of adjusting the front
seats to provide safe and comfortable support
for the dr iver and the front passenger . Adjust
your seat properly so that :
- you can easily and quickly reach all the switches
and controls in the instrument panel
- your body is properly supported thus reducing
physical stress and fatigue
- the safety belts and a irbag system can offer
maximum protection
¢ page 143.
In the following sections, you will see exactly
how you can best adjust your seats.
There are special regulations and instructions for
installing a child seat on the front passenger's
seat. Always fo llow the information regarding
child safety provided in ¢
page 167, Child safe
ty .
A WARNING
Incorrect seating position of the driver and all
other passengers can resu lt in serious person
al injury .
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is in motion - never put your feet on
top of the instrument panel, out of the win dow or on top of the seat cushion. This ap
plies espec ially to the passengers. If you r
seating pos ition is incorrect, you increase
the risk of injury in the case of sudden brak
ing or an accident . If the airbag inf lates and
the seating position is incorrect, this could
result in personal injury or even death.
- It is important for both the driver and front
passenger to keep a distance of at least 10 inches (25 cm) between themselves and
the steering wheel and/or instrument panel. If you're sitting any closer than this, the air
bag system cannot protect you properly. In
52
addition, the front seats and head restraints
must be adjusted to your body height so
that they can give you maximum protection.
- Always try to keep as much distance as pos
sible between yourself and the steer ing
wheel or instrument panel.
- Do not adjust the driver's or front passeng er's seat while the vehicle is moving. Your
seat may move unexpectedly, causing sud
den loss of vehicle control and personal in
jury . If you adjust your seat while the vehicle
is moving, you are out of position.
Driver's seat
The correct seat position is important for safe
and relaxed driving .
We recommend that you adjust the driver's seat
in the following manner:
.,. Adjust the seat in fore and aft direction so that
you can easily push the pedals to the floor
while keeping your knees slightly bent¢&.
in
Why is your seat adjustment so important? on
page 52 .
.,. Adjust the backrest so that when you sit with
your back against the backrest, you can still
grasp the top of the steering wheel.
.,. For adjustable head restraints: adjust the head
restraint so the upper edge is as even as possi
ble with the top of your head. If that is not pos
sible, try to adjust the head restraint so that it
is as close to this position as possible
¢page 55. Move the head restraint so that it
is as close to the back of the head as possible.
A WARNING
Never place any objects in the dr iver's foot
well. An object could get into the pedal area
and interfere with pedal function. In case of
sudden braking or an acc ident, you would not
be ab le to brake or accelerate.

Front passenger's seat
Always move the front passenger seat into the rearmost position .
To avoid contact with the airbag while it is de
ploying, do not sit any closer to the instrument
panel than necessary and always wear the three
point safety belt provided adjusted correctly . We
recommend that you adjust the passenger's seat
in the following manner:
.. Bring the backrest up to an (almost) upright
position .
Do not ride with the seat reclined .
.. For adjustable head restraints: adjust the head
restraint so the upper edge is as even as possi
ble with the top of your head. If that is not pos
sible, try to adjust the head restraint so that it
is as close to this position as possible
c:::> page 55. Move the head restraint so that it
is as close to the back of the head as possible.

=
-Never adjust the driver's or front passeng-

do this while the vehicle is moving, you will
be out of position. Always adjust the driver's
or front passenger's seat when the vehicle is
not moving.
- Be careful when adjusting the seat height.
Check to see that no one is in the way, or se
rious injury could result!
- Because the seats can be electrically adjust
ed with the ignition off, never leave children
unattended in the vehicle . Unsupervised use
of the electric seat adjustments may cause
serious injury.
- To reduce the risk of injury in the case of
sudden braking or accident, front passen
gers must never ride in a moving vehicle
with the backrest reclined. Safety belts and
the airbag system only offer maximum pro
tect ion when the backrest is upright and the
safety belts are properly positioned on the
body. The more the backrest is reclined, the
greater the risk of personal injury from an incorrect seating position and improperly
positioned safety belts.
