—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.
— When the parking lights are switched on
and the ignition is switched off, the 200} sym-
bol appears in the light switch module.

The high beam assistant automatically turns the
high beams on or off depending on the surround-
ing conditions.
A camera on the rearview mirror mount can de-
tect light sources from other road users. The high

coming vehicles, the vehicle speed as well as oth-
er environmental factors and traffic conditions.
