the adjustable pedals to programmed
positions. See “Driver Memory Seat”
in section “Understanding the
Vehicle” for further information.
CAUTION!

adjustable pedals or obstruct their
movements as it may cause damage to
the pedal controls. Pedal movement
may become limited if there is an
obstruction in the adjustable pedal's
path.Rearview Mirrors External Mirrors External mirrors can be adjusted
electrically and are equipped with
anti-mist resistors operated by the air
conditioning system (see “Air
Conditioning Controls” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
The mirrors can be closed electrically
and will yield in both directions in case
of a collision.
The external mirrors are
electrochromic, which means, they
automatically operate an anti-glare
function by gradually shading as the
light hitting the mirrors increases.
The external rear-view electrochromic
mirrors work in conjunction with the
internal rear-view electrochromic
mirror.
NOTE:
• The mirrors can be adjusted
electrically only with the ignition
device in ACC and RUN position.
• When the vehicle is started, the
indicator light shown in the picture
will momentarily illuminate in both

“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”). • If the mirrors are automatically
folded after the last lock action,
then they will automatically unfold
when the ignition device is set on
ACC or RUN position.
• If the mirrors were manually folded
by the switch on the driver's door
panel, before a lock action, they will
need to be manually unfolded to
reactivate the automatic function.
CAUTION!
Never retract or open the mirrors
manually: it could damage the power
mechanism.

must be turned off (“0” position)
within 45 seconds of placing the
ignition switch in the OFF or ACC
position.
• Once the delay feature is active, any
additional shifting of the light switch
will cancel the feature.
• The headlight delay time is
programmable using the MTC+
System, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”.
• If the low beam bulbs/LEDs are active
due to “Headlights with Wipers”,
then the headlamps delay feature
will not be activated when the
