automatic headlight range system. Headlight range control

light range to the load level that is bei
ng carried in the vehicle. This way, it is
possible to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic more than necessary. At the same

lighting for the road ahead.
The headlights can only be adjusted when the dipped beam is switched on.
To lower the beam, turn the thumb wheel down from the basic setting 0.
Dynamic headlight range control
Vehicles with gas discharge lamps (xenon lamps) are equipped with dynamic
headlight range control . When you switch on the lights, their range regulates
itself according to the vehicle load.

Daylight driving lights light up automatically when the igni-
tion is switched on (only with AFS headlamps)Daylight driving lights switch off automatically when the street lighting

– Dipped headlights come on when the door is opened.
You have 2 mins. from when the key is taken out of the ignition switch to when
the lights flash; after this, the Coming home function will not activate. To acti-
vate it again, repeat the operation.
When the system is activated, dipped headlights remain on for 30 secs. after
closing the door. If the door is open for more than 3 mins., the system will not
remain active after the 3 mins., which means that the dipped lights will not
light up.
Note
•
If the vehicle is often used during the night for short trips and the Coming
home function is used, the battery will considerably discharge. To avoid this,
make longer journeys whenever possible.
•
Observe all relevant statutory requirements when using the lighting
systems described here.
Rear window heating
The rear window heating only works when the engine is running. When it is
switched on, a lamp lights up on the switch.
After approx. 8 minutes, the heating device of the rear window switches off
automatically.
For the sake of the environment
The rear window heater should be disconnected as soon as the glass is
demisted. By saving electrical power you can also save fuel.
Note
To avoid possible damage to the battery, an automatic temporary disconnec-
tion of this function is possible, coming back on when normal operating
conditions are reestablished.
