WARNING
When the light switch is set to 0058, the low-

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
0058.
The automatic headlamp feature is only an aid.
The driver is responsible for the vehicle's light-
ing at all times.
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
(Y page 166).
If the drive system is switched on and you turn
the light switch to 0060or0058, the manual
settings take precedence over the daytime run- ning lamps.
Low-beam headlamps Even if the light sensor does not detect that it isdark, the parking lamps and low-beam head-
lamps come on when the ignition is switched on
and the light switch is set to the 0058position.
This is a particularly useful function in the event of rain and fog. Exterior lighting

cation.
The hazard warning lamps still operate if the
ignition is switched off. Cornering light function
The cornering light function improves the illu-
mination of the road over a wide angle in the direction you are turning, enabling better visi-
bility in tight bends, for example. It can only be

switched on.
Active:
R if you are driving at speeds below 25 mph
(40 km/h) and switch on the turn signal or
turn the steering wheel
R if you are driving at speeds between 25 mph
(40 km/h) and 45 mph (70 km/h) and turn
the steering wheel
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after no
more than three minutes. Headlamps fogged up on the inside
Certain climatic and physical conditions may
cause moisture to form in the headlamp. This
moisture does not affect the functionality of the headlamp. Interior lighting

R Activate climate control using the 0058and
005A buttons. The indicator lamps in the
0058 and005A buttons light up.
R Set the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †).
R Only use the "Windshield defrosting" function
briefly until the windshield is clear again.
R Only 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.
R Use the ZONE function to adopt the temper-
ature settings on the driver's side for the
front-passenger side as well. The indicator
lamp in the 00D6button goes out.
R If you change the settings of the climate con-
trol system, the climate status display
appears for approximately three seconds at
the bottom of the screen in the multimedia
system display; see separate operating
instructions. You will see the current settings
of the various climate control functions.
You can choose between various drive programs
with the program selector button (Y page 114).
If you have selected drive program E+:
R the cooling output is reduced when cooling
R heat output is reduced when heating
R the time for which the rear window defroster
will run is reduced
If you have selected drive program Eor S, the
