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

Cornering lamps
The cornering lamps improve the illumination of the road over a wide angle in the direction
you are turning, enabling better visibility in
tight bends, for example.
The cornering light function switches on
automatically, if:
R you are traveling at a speed of less than
25 mph (40 km/h) and you switch on a turn signal or turn the steering wheel.
R you are traveling at a speed between
25 mph (40 km/ h)and 43 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 3 minutes.
i If reverse gear is engaged the lamp on the
opposite side of the vehicle switches on
instead. Hazard warning lamps
G
WARNING
The rear exterior light will be covered if you:
R open the rear doors by 90°
R open the rear dropside.
The vehicle will then be difficult for other road users to see or will not be seen by them at all,
particularly if it is dark or visibility is poor.
There is a risk of an accident.
You should therefore ensure in this and simi-
lar situations that the vehicle is visible from
the rear in accordance with the relevant
national regulations, by using the warning tri- angle, for instance. Hazard warning lamp switch
X
To switch on/off: press the002Fhazard
warning lamp switch.
If you have indicated a turn while the hazard
warning lamps are switched on, only the turn signal lamps on the side of the vehicle selec- ted will light up.
The hazard warning lamps switch on auto-
matically if:
R an air bag is deployed.
R you brake sharply and bring the vehicle to a
halt from a speed of more than 45 mph
(70 km/h).
If the hazard warning lamps have been
switched on automatically, press the 002F
hazard warning lamp switch to switch them
off.
i The hazard warning lamps work even
when the ignition is switched off. Headlamp cleaning system
The headlamps are cleaned automatically
with a high-pressure water jet if the "Wipe
with washer fluid" function is activated
(Y page 107) while the low-beam headlamps
are on and the engine is running.
You can find information on refilling washer
fluid in the "Maintenance and care" section
(Y page 255). 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
Exterior lightingLights and windshield wipers

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
