Head-Up Display
Overview
Principle
The system projects important information
into the field of vision of the driver, for example
speed.
The driver can register this information without
having to divert attention from the road.
Notes
Follow information on cleaning the Head-Up
Display, see page 211.
Visibility of the display Visibility of the display on the Head-Up Display
is influenced by the following factors:
▷Certain seat positions.▷Items on the Head-Up Display cover.▷Sunglasses with certain polarisation filters.▷Wet road.▷Unfavourable lighting conditions.
If the picture is distorted, have the basic set‐
tings checked by a Service Partner or a quali‐
fied specialist workshop.

Automatic driving lightscontrol
Principle Depending on ambient brightness, the system
switches the low-beam headlights on or off au‐
tomatically, for example in a tunnel, at twilight
and in rain or snow.
General The headlights may also come on when the
sun is sitting low in a blue sky.
When emerging from tunnels in daylight, low-
beam headlights are not switched off immedi‐
ately, but only after approximately 2 minutes.
The low-beam headlights always remain on
when the fog lights are switched on.
Activating Switch position:

The indicator light in the instrument cluster is
illuminated with the low-beam headlights
switched on.

System limits
The automatic driving lights control is no sub‐
stitute for your individual judgement of when it
is necessary to switch on the lights.
The sensors are unable, for instance, to recog‐
nise fog or hazy weather. In such situations,
switch on the lights manually to avoid any
safety risk.
Daytime driving lights Switch position:
,
The daytime driving lights illuminate with the
ignition switched on.
Activating/deactivating
In some countries daytime driving lights are
compulsory, which is why the daytime driving
lights cannot be deactivated.
On the Control Display:
1."Settings"2."Lights"3."Daytime driving lights"
The setting is saved for the currently used pro‐
file.
Adaptive HeadlightsPrinciple
Adaptive Headlights is a variable headlight
control system that makes it possible to illumi‐
nate the road surface responsively.
The beams from the headlights follow the road
ahead on the basis of the steering angle and
other parameters.
Depending on the speed, the variable light dis‐
tribution ensures even better illumination of
the roadway.
The light distribution is automatically adapted
to the speed. The city light is switched on if the
speed of 50 km/h, approx. 30 mph is not ex‐
ceeded while accelerating or if the speed of
40 km/h, approx. 25 mph is undercut while
braking. The motorway light is switched on at a speed higher than 110 km/h, 68 mph after ap‐
proximately 30 seconds or as of a speed of
140 km/h, 87 mph.
Activating Switch position
with the ignition switched
on.
So as not to dazzle oncoming vehicles, the
adaptive cornering light does not swivel to the
driver's side when stationary.
A cornering light is activated automatically de‐
pending on the steering angle or use of the
turn indicators.
The cornering light may be switched on when
driving in reverse, irrespective of the steering
angle.
Malfunction
A Check Control message is displayed.
Adaptive Headlights are faulty or have failed.
Have the system checked as soon as possible.
High-beam assistance
Principle When low-beam headlights are switched on,this system automatically switches the high-
beam headlights on and off or fades out the
areas which dazzle oncoming vehicles. This
process is controlled by a camera on the front
of the rear-view mirror. It ensures that the
high-beam headlights are switched on when‐
ever the traffic situation allows. You can also
control the lights yourself at any time and
switch them on and off as usual. The high-
beam headlights are not switched on by the
system in the low speed range.
