Exterior lighting
General notes
For reasons of safety, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you drive with the lights switched on even during the daytime. In some countries,
operation of the headlamps varies due to legal
requirements and self-imposed obligations. Driving abroad
It is not necessary to switch your headlamps to symmetrical dipped beam when driving in coun-
tries where vehicles are driven on the opposite
side of the road to the country in which the vehi- cle is registered. Legal requirements are fulfilled
without switching the headlamps to symmetri-
cal dipped beam. Setting the exterior lighting
Setting options Exterior lighting can be set by:

Reversing camera
General notes Reversing camera
:is located in the rear
bumper, underneath the tailgate.
Reversing camera :is a visual parking and
manoeuvring aid. It shows the area behind your vehicle with guide lines in the multimedia sys-
tem display.
The area behind the vehicle is displayed as a
mirror image, as in the rear-view mirror.
i The text shown in the multimedia system
display depends on the language setting. The following are examples of reversing camera
messages in the multimedia system display.
Important safety notes The reversing camera is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the immediate
surroundings. The responsibility for safe
manoeuvring and parking remains with you.
Make sure that there are no persons, animals or
objects in range while manoeuvring and parking.
The reversing camera will not function or will
function only in a limited manner:
R in heavy rain, snow or fog
R at night or in very dark places
R if the camera is exposed to very bright light
R if the area is lit by fluorescent lamps or LED
lighting (the display may flicker)
R if the camera lens mists up, e.g. when driving
into a heated garage in winter, causing a rapid
change in temperature R
if the camera lens is dirty or obstructed.
Observe the notes on cleaning
(Y page 241)
R if the rear of your vehicle is damaged. In this
case, have the camera position and setting
checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
The field of vision and other functions of the
reversing camera may be restricted due to addi-
tional accessories on the rear of the vehicle (e.g. licence plate holder, bicycle rack).
The guide lines on the multimedia system dis-
play show the distances to your vehicle. The
distances apply only at road level.
Activating/deactivating the reversing

been selected with the Start/Stop button.
X Make sure that the Activation by R gear Activation by R gear
function is selected in the multimedia system (see Digital Owner's Manual).

able throughout the manoeuvring process.
To deactivate: the reversing camera deacti-
vates if you shift the transmission to Por after
driving forwards a short distance.
Messages in the multimedia system dis-
play The reversing camera may show a distorted view
of obstacles, show them incorrectly or not at all. Obstacles are not shown by the reversing cam-
era in the following locations:
R very close to the rear bumper
R under the rear bumper
! Objects not at ground level may appear to
be further away than they actually are, e.g.:
R the bumper of a parked vehicle
