Static cornering lights
Your vehicle may have fog lights under the front bumper that are also static cornering lights. On some models the static cornering lights may also be integrated in the headlights. At speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h), the light on one side of the vehicle will come on automatically when you turn a corner. If you turn to the right, the right fog light lights up; turn left and the left fog light lights up. The light dims and goes out when the steering wheel is straightened out again.
When you move the selector lever to Reverse (R), the static cornering lights on both sides of the vehicle may come on so that you can see the area around the vehicle better when backing up.
The static cornering lights work only when the headlights are on. If you are using automatic headlights
(headlight switch in the ! 5 4 / position ⇒ fig. 101), they work only when the headlights have been auto-matically switched on. The static cornering lights do not come on when the headlight switch is in the /
position or when the fog lights themselves have been switched on ⇒ Switching lights on and off.
Automatic headlights ( ! 5 4 /)
Automatic headlights are a convenience feature only and cannot always recognize all lighting and driving situations.
If the light switch is in the ! 5 4 / position, both vehicle lighting and instrument and switch lighting are
automatically switched on and off in the following situations ⇒ :
Automatic activation: Automatic deactivation:
If the low-light sensor registers darkness, for example when driving through a tunnel. If sufficient brightness is registered.
WARNING
Crashes and other accidents can happen when you cannot see the road ahead and when you cannot be seen by other motorists.
x Never use daytime running lights (DRL) to see where you are going. DRL are not bright enough to light up the roadway and be seen by other motorists. You will not be able to see far enough ahead for safety, especially at dusk or when it is dark. Always switch on the low-beam headlights at dusk or when it is dark.
x The taillights do not come on when the daytime running lights are switched on. A vehicle without taillights on cannot be seen by others in bad weather, at dusk, or when it is dark.
x If automatic headlights ( ! 5 4 /) are switched on, the low-beam headlights still may not be switched on in fog or heavy rain. You have to switch on the low-beam headlights yourself.
In cool or humid weather, the insides of the headlights, rear lights, and turn signals can tempo-rarily fog up. This is normal and does not affect the service life of the vehicle's lighting system.
