Emergencies
If you choose to change the engine compart-
ment l
amp
s yourself, remember that it is a
dangerous area ››› in Work in the engine
c omp
ar
tment on page 262.
Always use identical bulbs with the same
designation. The name can be found on the
base of the bulb holder.
Depending on how equipped the vehicle is,
there are different sets of headlights and tail
lights:
● Halogen headlights
● Full-LED main headlights*
● Halogen headlights with LED daytime run-
ning lights*
● Re
ar bulb light
● LED rear light*
Ful
l-LED headlight system*
Full-LED headlights handle all light functions
(daylight, side light, turn signal, dipped
beam and route light) with light emitting di-
odes (LEDs) as a light source.
Full-LED headlights are designed to last the
lifetime of the car and light bulbs cannot be
replaced. In case of headlight failure, go to
an authorised workshop to have it replaced. WARNING
● Tak e p
articular care when working on com-
ponents in the engine compartment if the en-
gine is warm. Risk of burns.
● Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
glas
s can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure
yourself on sharp edges, in particu-
lar on the headlight housing. CAUTION
● Remo v
e the ignition key before working on
the electric system. Otherwise, a short circuit
could occur.
● Switch off the lights and the parking light
before c
hanging a bulb.
● Take good care to avoid damaging any com-
ponents. For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to dis-
pose of u
sed bulbs in the proper manner. Note
● Ple a
se check at regular intervals that all
lighting (especially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is
not only in the interest of your own safety,
but also that of all other road users. ●
Bef or
e changing a bulb, make sure you
have the correct new bulb.
● Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
your bar
e hands, use a cloth or paper towel
instead, since the fingerprints left on the
glass will vaporise as a result of the heat gen-
erated by the bulb, they will be deposited on
the reflector and will impair its surface. 94

The legal requirements regarding the use of
vehicle lights in each country must be ob-
served.
The driver is personally responsible for the
correct use and adjustment of the lights in all
situations.
Audible warnings to advise the driver that
the lights have not been switched off
If the key is not in the ignition and the driver
door is open, an audible warning signal is
heard in the following cases: this is a remind-
er to turn off the lights.

The side lights or daytime running lights are
not bright enough t
o illuminate the road
ahead and to ensure that other road users are
able to see you. ●
Alw a
ys use your dipped beam head lights if
it is raining or if visibility is poor. WARNING
If the headlights are set too high and not
u sed c orr
ectly, there is a risk of dazzling or
distracting other road users. This could result
in a serious accident.
● Always make sure that the headlights are
correctly
adjusted. Daytime running lights
The daytime running lights consist of individ-
ual
lights, int
e
grated in the front headlights.
With the daylight driving lights on, only these
lights switch on ››› .
The d a
ytime ru
nning lights switch on every
time the ignition is switched on, if the switch
is in positions or , according to the level
of exterior lighting.
When the light switch is in position , a
light sensor automatically switches dipped
beam on and off (including the control and
instrument lighting) or the daytime running
lights depending on the level of exterior
lighting. WARNING
● Never driv e w
ith daytime lights if the road
is not well lit due to weather or lighting con-
ditions. Daytime lights do not provide
enough light to illuminate the road properly
or be seen by other road users.
● The rear lights do not come on with the
daytime driv
ing light. A vehicle which does
not have the rear lights on may not be visible
to other drivers in the darkness, in the case
of heavy rain or in conditions of poor visibili-

Operation
In vehicles that do not have the correspond-
in g menu, thi
s
function can be deactivated in
a specialised workshop. WARNING
Improper or lack of use of the turn signals, or
for g
etting to deactivate them can confuse
other road users. This could result in a seri-
ous accident.
● Always give warning when you are going to
chan
ge lane, overtake or when turning, acti-
vating the turn signal in good time.
● As soon as you have finished changing
lane, ov
ertaking or turning, switch the turn
signal off. WARNING
Incorrect use of the headlights may cause ac-
cident s
and serious injury, as the main beam
may distract or dazzle other drivers. Note
● If the c on
venience turn signals are operat-
ing (three flashes) and the other convenience
turn signals are switched on, the active part
stops flashing and only flashes once in the
new part selected.
● The turn signal only works when the igni-
tion is sw
itched on. The hazard warning
lights also work when the ignition is switch-
ed off. ●
If a tr ai
ler turn signal malfunctions, the
control lamp will stop flashing (trailer turn
signals) and the vehicle turn signal will flash
at double speed.
● The main beam headligh
ts can only be
switched on if the dipped beam headlights
are already on.
● In cold or damp weather conditions, the
headlight
s, tail lights and turn signals may
mist up inside temporarily. This is normal and
in no way effects the useful life of the vehicle
lighting system. Automatic dipped beam control

Main beam assist (Light Assist)
The main beam assist acts within the limits
of the system and depending on environmen-
tal and traffic conditions. Once switched on,
the system is activated as of a speed of
about 60 km/h (37 mph) and is deactivated
below about 30 km/h (18 mph) ››› .
When the sy s
t
em is activated and the camera
detects other vehicles that may be dazzled,
the main beam is automatically switched off.
Otherwise, the main beam is automatically
switched on.

The f
o
l
lowing conditions may prevent the
main beam headlight control from turning off
the headlights in time or from turning off al-
together:
● In poorly lit towns with highly reflective
signs. ●
Other in
suffic
iently lit road users (such as
pedestrians or cyclists).
● On tight bends and steep slopes (bumps)
and when oncoming
vehicles are partially ob-
scured.
● When the drivers of other oncoming vehi-
cle
s (such as a truck) can see over a guard
rail in the centre of the road.
● If the camera is damaged or the power sup-
ply i
s cut off.
● In fog, snow and heavy rain.
● With dust and sand turbulence.
● With loose gravel in the field of vision of
the camera.
● When the fiel
d of vision of the camera is
mist
ed up, dirty or covered by stickers, snow,
ice, etc. WARNING
The convenience features of the main beam
as s
ist should not encourage the taking of
risks. The system is not a replacement for
driver concentration.
● You are always in control of the main beam
and adaptin
g it to the light, visibility and traf-
fic conditions.
● It is possible that the main beam headlight
contro
l does not recognise all driving situa-
tions and is limited under certain circumstan-
ces. ●
When the field of
vision of the camera is
dirty, covered or damaged, operation of the
main beam control may be affected. This also
applies when changes are made to the vehi-
cle lighting system, for example, if additional
headlights are installed. CAUTION
To avoid affecting the operation of the sys-
t em, t ak
e the following points into considera-
tion:
● Clean the field of vision of the camera regu-
larly and m
ake sure it is free of snow and ice.
● Do not cover the field of vision of the cam-
era.
● Check
that the windscreen is not damaged
in the area of
the field of vision of the camera. Note
