less likely to see glare from your own headlights,
for example when driving on a wet road.
Automatic dynamic headlight range control
system*
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlight range
control system so that there is less glare for on-
coming traffic if the vehicle load changes. The
headlight range also adjusts automatically when
braking and accelerating.
Light functions
The following light functions may be available
depending on vehicle equipment and only func-
tion when the light switch is in the AUTO posi-
tion.
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. They do not relieve the
driver of responsibility to check the head-
lights and to turn them on manually based
on the current 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.
—To reduce glare for traffic behind your vehi-
cle, the rear fog lights* should only be

turned on in accordance with the legal >

regulations in the country where you are op-
erating 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.
— Observe the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle when
using the lighting system that is described.

@ Tips
— 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 39.
— If you turn off the ignition while the exterior
lights are on and open the door, a warning
tone sounds.
— 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.

key you are using.
The mirror goes back into its original position
once you drive forward faster than 9 mph
(15 km/h) or turn the ignition off.
Z\ WARNING
Curved mirror surfaces (convex) enlarge the
field of vision. However, they make objects in
the mirror appear smaller and farther away.
You may estimate incorrectly when you use
these mirrors to gauge your distance from the
vehicles behind you when changing lanes,
which increases the risk of an accident.
Qo Note
If the mirror housing was moved by outside
forces (such as an impact when maneuver-
ing), you must use the power folding function
to fold the mirror all the way out. The mirror
housing must not be moved back into place
by hand because this could impair the func-
tion of the mirror mechanism.
G@) Tips
If the power adjusting function malfunctions,
the glass in both mirrors can be adjusted by
pressing on the edge of it by hand.

Stowing and using

Luggage compartment
General information
All pieces of luggage or objects must be securely
fastened in the luggage compartment. Note the
following to maintain good vehicle handling:
> Distribute the load evenly in the luggage com-
partment.
> Stow heavy luggage as far forward in the lug-
gage compartment as possible.
» Use non-elastic cords attached to the tie-downs
to secure objects.

Z\ WARNING
— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
an accident. Always stow objects securely in
the luggage compartment and secure them
at the tie-downs. Use straps suitable for
heavy objects.
— If pieces of luggage or objects are secured
to the tie-downs with unsuitable or dam-
aged straps, this can increase the risk of in-
jury during braking maneuvers or accidents.
— When transporting heavy objects, the vehi-
cle characteristics will change due to the
shift in the center of gravity, which increases
the risk of an accident. You may need to
adapt your driving style and speed to the
current conditions.
— The cargo net is only strong enough to se-
cure light objects. Heavy objects are not ade-
quately secured. Attempting to secure heavy
objects increases the risk of injury.
— Never exceed the permitted axle and load
and vehicle weight > page 286.
— Never secure a child safety seat to the tie-
downs.
— Never leave your vehicle unattended, espe-
cially if the luggage compartment lid is
open. Children could enter the luggage com-
partment and close the luggage compart-
ment lid from the inside. This creates the
risk of fatal injury, since the children would
be locked in and may not be able to escape
by themselves.

sO

— Do not allow children to play in or on the ve-
hicle. Close and lock the luggage compart-
ment lid as well as all other doors when you
leave the vehicle.
— Never transport passengers in the luggage
compartment. Every passenger must be cor-
rectly secured with the safety belts in the
vehicle > page 182.
() Note
Make sure that the heating grid strips for the
rear window defogger are not damaged by
abrasive objects.
G) Tips
— The tire pressure must be adapted to the
load > page 250.
— You can purchase straps at specialty stores.
