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

Exterior lightingLights and windshield wipers

This is not possible in countries where day-
time running lamps are a legal requirement.
The daytime running lamps function must be
activated using the on-board computer:
R vehicles with steering wheel buttons
(Y page 192)
R vehicles without steering wheel buttons
(Y page 183)
X To switch on: turn the light switch to the
003F position.
The low-beam headlamps, parking lamps
and license plate lamp are switched on
when the engine is running. The 0058indi-
cator lamp in the instrument cluster lights
up.
i USA only:
If you turn the light switch to the 0060or
0058 position, the parking lamps or low-
beam headlamps switch on. If you turn the light switch to the 0058position, the day-
time running lamps remain switched on.
i Canada only:
If you turn the light switch to the 0058
position, the low-beam headlamps are
switched on. If you turn the light switch to
the 0060 or0058 position, the daytime
running lamps remain switched on.
Automatic headlamp mode G
WARNING
When the light switch is set to 0058, 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
0058.
Automatic headlamp mode is only a driving
aid. You are responsible for the vehicle light-
ing at all times.
Depending on ambient light, the rain and light sensor automatically switches on the parking lamps, low-beam headlamps and the license
plate lamp. This excludes weather-related
impairments to visibility, such as snow, fog or
spray.
If there is fog, snow or spray, turn the light
switch quickly from 0058to0058. You could
otherwise briefly interrupt operation of the
headlamps.
X To switch on automatic headlamp
mode: turn the light switch to 0058.
Key in position 1in the ignition lock: the
parking lamps switch on or off automati-
cally depending on the ambient light.
When the engine is running: if you activate
the "daytime running lamps" function using the on-board computer, the daytime run-
ning lamps are switched on. The parking
lamps and low-beam headlamps also
switch on or off automatically, depending
on the ambient light.
When the low-beam headlamps are
switched on, the 0058indicator lamp in the
instrument cluster lights up.
Fog lamps/rear fog lamp G
WARNING
If you suspect that driving conditions will be
foggy, turn the light switch to 0058before you
start your journey. Your vehicle may other-
wise not be visible and you could endanger
yourself and others. G
WARNING
In low ambient lighting or foggy conditions,
only switch from position 0058to0058 with
the vehicle at a standstill in a safe location.
Switching from 0058to0058 will briefly
switch off the headlamps. Doing so while driv-
ing in low ambient lighting conditions may
result in an accident.
X Turn the ignition key to position 2in the
ignition lock or start the engine.
X Turn the light switch to 0058or0060. Exterior lighting

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

Headlamps fogged up on the inside
The headlamps may fog up on the inside if
there is high atmospheric humidity.
X Switch on the low-beam headlamps and
drive off.
The level of moisture diminishes, depend-
ing on the length of the journey and the
weather conditions (humidity and temper-
ature).
If the level of moisture does not diminish:
X Have the headlamps checked at a qualified
specialist workshop. Interior lighting
