For reasons of safety, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you drive with the lights switched on

GWARNING
When the light switch is set to Ã, the low-

causes of poor visibility due to the weather
conditions such as spray. There is a risk of an
accident.
In such situations, turn the light switch to
L.
The automatic headlamp feature is only an aid.
The driver is responsible for the vehicle's light-
ing at all times.
Canada only:
The daytime running lamps improve the visibility
of your vehicle during the day. The daytime run-
ning lamps function is required by law in Can-
ada. It cannot therefore be deactivated.
When the engine is running and the vehicle is
stationary: if you move the selector lever from a
drive position to P, the daytime running lamps/
low-beam headlamps go out after three
minutes.
When the engine is running, the vehicle is sta-
tionary and in bright ambient light: if you turn the
light switch to the Tposition, the daytime
running lamps and parking lamps switch on.
If the engine is running and you turn the light
switch to the Lposition, the manual settings
take precedence over the daytime running
lamps.
USA only:
The daytime running lamps improve the visibility
of your vehicle during the day. To do this, the
daytime running lamps function must be
switched on using the on
-board computer
(Ypage 161).
If the engine is running and you turn the light
switch to the TorL position, the manual
settings take precedence over the daytime run-
ning lamps.
à is the favored light switch setting. The light
setting is automatically selected according to

GWARNING
When the light switch is set to Ã, the low-
beam headlamps may not be switched on
automatically if there is fog, snow or other
causes of poor visibility due to the weather
conditions such as spray. There is a risk of an
accident.
In such situations, turn the light switch to
L.
When the ignition is switched on and the light
switch is in the Lposition, the parking lamps
and low-beam headlamps are switched on even
if the light sensor does not sense dark condi-
tions. This is a particularly useful function in the
event of rain and fog.
XTo switch on the low-beam headlamps:
select key position 2with the Start/Stop but-
ton or start the engine.
XTurn the light switch to the Lposition.
The green Lindicator lamp in the instru-
ment cluster lights up.

ciently lit according to legal standards. Avoid
using the parking lamps Tover a period of
several hours. If possible, switch on the right-
hand X or left-hand Wstanding lamp.

Always carefully observe the traffic conditions
and switch off the high-beam headlamps in
good time.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist cannot take into
account road, weather or traffic conditions.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting
to the prevailing light, visibility and traffic con-
ditions.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can be
restricted if there is:
Rpoor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or
snow
Rdirt on the sensors or the sensors are
obscured

imately 16 mph (25 km/h):
The headlamp range is set automatically
depending on the distance between the vehi-
cle and other road users.
If you are driving at speeds above approx-
imately 19 mph (30 km/ h)and no other road
users have been detected:
The high-beam headlamps are switched on
automatically. The Kindicator lamp in the
instrument cluster also lights up.
If you are driving at speeds below approx-
imately 16 mph (25 km/h)or other road users
have been detected or the roads are ade-
quately lit:
The high-beam headlamps are switched off
automatically. The Kindicator lamp in the

back to its normal position or move the light
switch to another position.
The _ indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster goes out.

3-zone automatic climate control
The following contains instructions and recom-
mendations to enable you to get the most out of
your 3-zone automatic climate control.
RActivate climate control using the Ã
rocker switch. The indicator lamp above the
à rocker switch lights up. The "Cooling
with air dehumidification" function is not acti-
vated automatically in automatic mode. If
necessary, activate this function
(
Ypage 95).
RSet the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †).
ROnly use the "Windshield defrosting" function
briefly until the windshield is clear again.
ROnly use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g. if
there are unpleasant outside odors or when in
a tunnel. The windows could otherwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn into the vehicle in
air-recirculation mode.
ECO start/stop function
During automatic engine switch-off, the climate
control system only operates at a reduced capa-
city. If you require the full climate control output,
you can switch off the ECO start/stop function
by pressing the ECO button (
Ypage 106).

Activating/deactivating cooling with
air dehumidification
General notes
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehumid-
ification" function, the air inside the vehicle will
not be cooled. The air inside the vehicle will also
not be dehumidified. The windows can fog up
more quickly. Therefore, deactivate the cooling
with air-dehumidification function only briefly.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" function is only available when the engine is running. The
air inside the vehicle is cooled and dehumidified
according to the temperature selected.
Condensation may drip from the underside of
the vehicle when it is in cooling mode. This is
normal and not a sign that there is a malfunc-
tion.
