Crosswind Assist does not react:
R in the event of severe jolts and vibrations,
e.g. as a result of uneven surfaces or pot-
holes
R if the vehicle loses traction, e.g. on snow or
ice or when aquaplaning
R to large and sudden steering movements
by the driver
Crosswind Assist is operational again as soon as the driving conditions return to normal.
Crosswind Assist detects strong crosswind
gusts that can impair the road holding of your
vehicle when driving straight ahead. Cross-
wind Assist intervenes depending on the
direction and strength of the crosswind.
A stabilizing brake application helps you to
keep the vehicle on track.
Information appears in the instrument cluster
In the event that Crosswind Assist intervenes noticeably.

ment cluster flashes.

Assist Active Assist Active appears in the multifunction
display.
Crosswind Assist is active above a vehicle
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h)when the vehicle
is driving straight ahead or cornering gently. Emergency exit
Emergency exit window
G
WARNING
The emergency exit window cannot be locked in place. You risk injury if you exit the vehicle
through the emergency exit window.
R Make sure that nobody becomes trapped,
both when closing and when opening the
emergency exit window.
R The opened emergency exit window must
be held in place by another person. Pay attention to traffic conditions.
G
WARNING
If the emergency exit window is unlocked
while driving, it could open and slam shut and consequently fall down. There is a risk of an
accident and injury.
Before starting off, make sure that the emer-
gency exit window is locked and the locking
pins are undamaged.
! Make sure there is sufficient clearance
when opening the emergency exit window. Hold the open window in position. You
could otherwise damage the emergency
exit window. The emergency exit window is intended for
use in an emergency only and must not be
opened unless the vehicle is stationary. The
emergency exit window is the first window
behind the driver's seat on the driver's side. It
is marked by the "Emergency Exit" label.
X To open: position both handles 0043verti-
cally. This will break locking pins 0044.
The window is unlocked.
X Swing the window outward by the handles
and hold it in this position. Make sure there
is sufficient clearance when doing so.
X To close: close the window. 60

In order to reduce risks:
R draw the passengers' attention to the elec-
trical step. Wait until the electrical step is
fully extended.
R do not jump out of the vehicle.
R only use the grab handle and step. Only
they are designed for such a load.
R keep grab handles, access steps and entry
sills free from dirt, e.g. mud, clay, snow and ice. Operation and obstacle detection
Electrical step
The sliding door of your vehicle can be equip- ped with an electrical step.
X When getting in and out of the vehicle, use
the grab handles and electrical step 0043.
Electrical step 0043automatically extends
when the sliding door is opened and retracts
when it is closed.
Electrical step 0043is equipped with an
obstruction detection device on the front
side. If the step comes into contact with an
obstacle while it is extending, it stops.
After you have removed the obstacle, you
must first close the sliding door and open it
once again so that the step can extend com-
pletely.
i If the electrical step obstructs loading,
you can prevent the step from extending
when opening the sliding door via obstacle
detection. The electrical step can then
remain retracted and a forklift or other lift- ing equipment can be moved nearer to the
cargo compartment.
Vehicles without steering-wheel buttons:
if the 003E indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up and a warning tone sounds,
electrical step 0043is malfunctioning
(Y page 227).
Vehicles with steering wheel buttons: if
the Electrical Step
Electrical Step message is shown in
the display and a warning tone sounds, elec-
trical step 0043is malfunctioning (Y page 216).
If electrical step 0043is malfunctioning, the
step may only partially extend/retract or may not extend/retract at all. If a malfunction
does occur, you will have to retract and lock
electrical step 0043manually before continuing
the journey (Y page 74).
Before passengers get out of the vehicle, let
them know that electrical step 0043might not
be extended. Emergency release
! Driving with the step extended may result
in it being damaged.
If the electrical step does not retract auto-
matically, you will have to push it in and
lock it into place manually before continu-
ing your journey. X
Pull R-clips 0044on both rods 0043on the
underside of the step out of their respective
pins.
X Remove washers 0087and detach both
rods 0043. 74

Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models
as well as standard and optional equipment of your vehicle that were available at the time of going to print. Country-specific variations are
possible. Note that your vehicle may not be
equipped with all of the described functions.
This also applies to systems and functions
relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 25). Exterior lighting
Important safety notes
For reasons of safety, we recommend that
you drive with the lights switched on even
during the daytime. There may be differences
in operation due to legal requirements and
voluntary recommendations in some coun-
tries. Bulb failure indicator
The bulb failure indicator is only an aid. You
are responsible for the proper functioning of
the vehicle lighting. Insufficient or non-func-
tioning vehicle lighting puts the operating
safety of the vehicle at risk.
For this reason, check the condition and func-
tion of your vehicle's lighting system and, if
necessary, that of the trailer before each jour- ney.
The bulb failure indicator monitors all of the
exterior lighting lamps, except the perimeter
lamp and the trailer lighting. If a bulb fails,
either the 0049(Ypage 35) indicator lamp
lights up, or you will see a corresponding
message in the display (Y page 208).
i Depending on the equipment, the bulb
failure indicator can fail for all lamps with
the exception of the turn signal lamps. Light switch

Highbeam Assist
General notes You can use this function to set the head-
lamps to change between low beam and high beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlamps from high beam to
low beam.
Once the system no longer detects any other
vehicles, it reactivates the high-beam head-
lamps.
The system's optical sensor is located behind the windshield near the overhead control
panel.
Important safety notes G
WARNING
Highbeam Assist does not recognize road
users:
R who have no lights, e.g. pedestrians
R who have poor lighting, e.g. cyclists
R whose lighting is blocked, e.g. by a barrier
In very rare cases, Highbeam Assist may fail to
recognize other road users who have lights, or
may recognize them too late. In this or similar situations, the automatic high-beam head-
lamps will not be deactivated or will be acti-
vated regardless. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Always carefully observe the traffic conditions and switch off the high-beam headlamps in
good time.
Highbeam Assist cannot take into account
road, weather or traffic conditions. Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are responsible for
adjusting the vehicle's lighting to the prevail-
ing light, visibility and traffic conditions. In particular, the detection of obstacles can
be restricted if there is:
R poor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or
snow
R dirt on the sensors or anything else cover-
ing the sensors
Activating/deactivating Highbeam
Assist X
To activate: switch on the Highbeam
Assist function using the on-board com-
puter (Y page 192).
X Turn the light switch to the 0058position.
X Press the combination switch beyond the
pressure point in the direction of arrow 0043
(Y page 94).
Highbeam Assist is active.
The 00CE or indicator lamp in the
multifunction display lights up when it is
dark and the light sensor activates the low-
beam headlamps.
If you are driving at speeds above approx-
imately 22 mph (35 km/h) and no other
road users have been detected:
The high-beam headlamps are switched on
automatically. The 0057indicator lamp in
the instrument cluster also lights up.
If you are driving at speeds below approx-
imately 19 mph (30 km/h), other road
users are recognized or the roads are ade-
quately lit:
The high-beam headlamps are switched off automatically. The 0057indicator lamp in
the instrument cluster goes out. The 00CE
or indicator lamp in the multifunc-
tion display remains lit.
X To deactivate: move the combination
switch back to its normal position or move the light switch to another position.
The 00CE or indicator lamp in the
multifunction display goes out. 96
