14 4 Speed
warning
You can store a road speed which is not to
be exceeded. As soon as you exceed that
speed by approximately 6 miles (1 0 kilome­
ters), a warning tone sounds and "MPH"
("k m/h ") appears in the disp lay.
Nota Always monitor the vehicle speed by
means of the speedometer. The speed
warning device may only be used as a re­
minder not to exceed the posted speed
limit. The
following describes how to store or de­
lete speed warnings 1 and 2.
Speed warning 1
The ''MPH" ("km/h ") disappears when you
reduce the speed below the stored speed.
Also, the ''MPH" goes out when the driving
speed increases approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h) over the set speed for at least
1 0 seconds. The stored speed is not de­
leted.
Selec ting speed limit
Press the test button for the Auto-Check
control briefly when the desired speed is in­
dicated on the speedometer. The speed
warning symbol lights up when the button
is released to confirm that the selected
speed has been stored.
The set speed limit remains stored until
another speed is selected by pressing the
button again or until the memory is cleared.

Cancelling speed limit
Press the test button for at least 1 second
when the yehicle is moving at a speed
above 3 miles (5 km/h). The display will
show the warning symbol crossed through
to confirm that the speed limit has been
cleared.
Speed warning 2
82
When the ignition is switc hed off, the driver
can store a permanent speed limit
warning in the unit. The
warning is shown in the display as de­
scribed. The warning symbol only goes out
once the road speed has fallen below the
stored value again.
We recommend to store this speed limit
v:' arning if you wish to be reminded of a par­
ticular speed limit in addition to speed limit
warning 1. (For instance when driving in
countries with general speed limits or if a
particular speed should not be exceeded
when winter tires are fitted, etc.)
Selecting speed limit
• Press the test button briefly with the
ignition switched off. The mileage re­
corder display will then light up.
• Press the test button again and hold for
at least 2 seconds. The speed limit currently
set appears in the disp lay.
• To change the speed limit, press the top
or bottom of the function selector switch for
the trip computer (see arrow illustration).
The speed limit displayed will then increase
or decrease by 6 miles (1 0 km/h ) at a time. CONT
ROLS AND EQUIPMENT
• A few seconds after the button is re­
leased, the display lighting goes out again.
Cancelling speed limit

Daytime running lights
148 This
switch also operates the front and rear
fog lights: it can pulled out when the side
lights or headlights are switched on.
To conserve battery power, the headlights
will go out automatically when the ignition
is turned off or while the starter is engaged.
High beam, low beam and headlight flasher,
see page 156.
Automatic headlight adjustment
After you start the engine, as well as while
the vehicle is moving, the headlights auto­
matically adjust themselves to the load and
angle of the vehicle (for example, during ac­
celeration or braking). This prevents unnec­
essary glare for on-com ing traffic.
If the system is not operating properly, the
warning symbol in the Auto Check Control
- see page 144- will come on. Daytime
running lights
(Canada models only)
When the ignition is switched on, the fog
lights, side marker lights and taillights will
automatically come on.
�W ARNING
Accidents can happen when you
cannot see the road ahead and
when you cannot be seen by other
motorists.
- Never use daytime running
lights to see where you're go­
ing. They are not bright enough
and won't let you see for enough
ahead for safety, especially at
dusk or when it's dark.
- Always turn on the headlights
so that you can see ahead and so
that others can see your car
from the back.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT---------------------

- Electronic Stability Program
(ESP)
The ESP is switched on automatically when
the engine is started. If required, it can also
be switched on and off manually by briefly
pressing the switch .
. When the system is switched off, the warn­
ing light comes on. See page 124.
See page 205 for further details.

- Emergency flasher �
The emergency flasher works independe nt­
ly of the ignition switch position.
If your vehicle is disabled or parked under
emergency conditions, depress the switch
to make all four turn signals flash simulta­
neously. The warning light in the switch
flashes too. ftl
WARN ING
To avoid being struck by another
vehicle, move your vehicle a safe
distance off the road when stalled
or stopped for repairs. Do not park
or operate the vehicle in areas
where the hot exhaust system may
come in contact with dry grass,
brush, fuel spill or other material
that can cause fire.
When the airbag deploys in an accident, the
emergency flasher also will come on.

---------------------CONTROLS AND EQUIPMEN T
Notes continued
• At excessive loads (for example, over­
heating caused by frequent changes in the
ride height when the vehicle is stationary),
the system is temporarily deactivated for
safety reasons. The system will return to
full operation once it has cooled down.
• The system automatically switches to
the normal level if the ESP automatically
shuts off (see page 205). If this happens,
switch the ignition off, and then on again.
Now you can select the desired level once
again.

press buttons (1) and (3) at the same
time for at least 5 seconds with the ignition
switched on.
When the system is in the jack mode, the
LED's on control buttons (1) and (3), the yel­
low LED for the manual mode on the level
ind icator (2) and the warning light for level
control in the instrument cluster (see pa­
ge 123) will all come on.
Once this happens, tum off the ignition.
The vehicle can now be lifted. Deactivating
To deactivate the jack mode, press buttons
(1) and (3) at the same time for at least 5
seconds. The warning light in the instru­
ment cluster, the LED for manual mode, and
the LED's on the control buttons will all turn
off.
The original system state and full functional�
ity of the ride height system are now re­
stored.
In addition, the jack mode will automatically
be deactivated when vehicle speed ex­
ceec;ls 3 mph (5 km/h ).
�W ARNING
• Make certain that no one is lying
under the vehicle or has his I her
head or hands in the wheel house
while the ride height is changing
or when a iack is being used.
• Changes in outside tempera­
ture, in vehicle loads or in other
conditions will cause the vehicle
to adjust it's level automatically.

ing the lever toward the steering wheel.
When flashing headlights, the blue indicator
light will come on. Xenon
lights*
After starting the engine the Xenon head­
ligh ts are automatically adjusted to the load
and angle of the vehicle (for example, during
acceleration, braking). This prevents on­
coming traffic from experiencing unneces­
sary glare from your headlights.
If the system is not operating properly, a
warning symbol will be displayed in the
