3. Switch on ignition.
4. After approx. 3 seconds, an acoustic signal sounds.
The headlights are aimed
automatically.
Every time the ignition is switched on,
control indicator f flashes as a
reminder for approx. 4 seconds.
For deactivation, operate the same
procedure as described above.
Control indicator f will not flash when
function is deactivated.
Control indicator f 3 89.
Daytime running lights Daytime running lights increase
visibility of the vehicle during daylight.
They are switched on automatically
when ignition is on.Adaptive forward lighting
The Adaptive forward lighting
functions are only available with Bi-
Xenon headlights. Light range, light
distribution and intensity of light are
variably triggered depending on the
light conditions, weather and road
type.
Playstreet lightingActivated automatically at low speed
up to approx. 20 mph. The light beam
is turned at an angle of -5°/3° to the
roadside.
Town lighting Activated automatically at a speed up
to approx. 30 mph and when street
lights are detected by the light sensor.
The light range is reduced by an
extended light distribution.
Country lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
range between approx. 30 and
72 mph. The beam of light and the
brightness is different between the
left and the right side.Motorway lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
above approx. 72 mph and minimal
steering movements. It switches on
after a delay or directly when the vehicle is powerfully accelerated. The
light beam is longer and brighter.
Adverse weather lighting
Activated automatically up to a speed
of approx. 43 mph, when the rain
sensor recognises condensation or the wiper operates continuously. The
range, distribution and light intensity
is regulated variably depending on visibility.

108Lighting
Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Control indicator f 3 89.
Corner lighting On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which
illuminates the road at an right angle
to the direction of travel. It is activated up to a speed of 25 mph.
Control indicator f 3 89.
Reversing function
If the headlights are on and reverse
gear is engaged, both corner lights
are switched on. They remain
illuminated for 20 seconds after
disengaging reverse gear or until
driving faster than 10 mph in a
forward gear.
High beam assist
This feature allows high beam as
main driving light by night and when
vehicle speed is faster than 25 mph.
It switches to low beam when: ■ The camera in the windscreen detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles.
■ The vehicle speed is slower than 12 mph.
■ It is foggy or snowy.
■ Driving in urban areas.Activation
The high beam assist is activated by
pushing the indicator lever twice at a
speed above 25 mph.
The green control indicator l
illuminates continuously when the
assist is activated, the blue one 7
illuminates when high beam is on.
Control indicator l 3 88.
Deactivation
Push indicator lever once. It is also
deactivated when front or rear fog
lights are switched on.

Lighting109
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is on, the high beam
assist will be deactivated.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is off, the high beam
assist will remain activated.
High beam assist is always active
after the ignition is switched on.
Dynamic automatic headlight
levelling
To prevent oncoming traffic from dazzle, headlight levelling is
automatically adjusted based on
inclination information measured by
front and rear axle, acceleration or
deceleration and vehicle speed.
Fault in Adaptive forward
lighting system When the system detects a failure in
the Adaptive forward lighting system,
the system moves to a preset position to avoid dazzling of oncoming traffic.
Have the cause of the failure
remedied by a workshop as soon as
possible.Hazard warning flashers
Operated with the ¨ button.
Turn and lane-change
signalslever up=right turn signallever down=left turn signal
If the lever is moved past the
resistance point, the turn signal is
switched on constantly. When the
steering wheel moves back, the turn
signal is automatically deactivated.
For three flashes, e.g. when changing
lanes, press the lever until resistance
is felt and then release.
Move the lever to the resistance point
and hold for longer indication.

Control of the vehicleNever coast with engine not
running (except during Autostop)
Many systems will not function in this
situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others. All
systems function during an Autostop,
but there will be a controlled reduction
in power steering assist and vehicle
speed is reduced.
Stop-start system 3 123.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a
system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.
Control indicator c 3 86.Caution
Vehicles equipped with hydraulic
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned until it reaches the end of its travel, and
is held in that position for more
than 10 seconds, damage may
occur to the power steering
system and there may be loss of
power steering assist.

122Driving and operatingStarting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period fuel and engine oil consumption may be
higher and the cleaning process of the diesel particle filter may take
place more often. Autostop may be
inhibited to allow for charging the
battery.

Manual transmission: operate clutch.
Automatic transmission: operate

P or N.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal. Diesel engine: turn the key to position2 for preheating until control
indicator ! extinguishes.
Turn the key briefly to position 3 and
release: an automatic procedure
operates the starter with a short delay
as long as the engine is running, see
'Automatic Starter Control'.
