Switching main beam assist on and off manually
Function Action
Switching on -Switch on the ignition and turn the light switch to position AUTO. -Push the turn signal and main beam lever forwards from its initial position =:-page 107.
When the main beam assist is switched on, the indicator lamp w lights up in the instru-ment cluster display.
-Switch off the ignition. -OR: turn the light switch to a position other than AUTO =>page 108.
Switching off -OR: with the main beam switched on, pull the turn signal and main beam lever back-wards. -OR: push the turn signal and main beam lever forwards to switch on the manual main beam. The main beam assist is then switched off.
Fault
it may not be possible to switch off the main beam quickly enough or at all using main beam assist due to the following:
• In poorly lit streets where there are highly-re-flective signs.
• When encountering other road users with insuf-ficient lighting, such as pedestrians or cydists.
• In tight bends, brows of hills or depressions in the land or half-hidden oncoming traffic.
• With oncoming traffic on streets with a central barrier where the driver can see clearly over the central barrier e. . truck drivers. g
• If the camera is broken or the power supply is interrupted.
• In fog, snow or heavy rain.
• In dusty or sandy areas.
• Damage to the windscreen in the camera's vi-sion field.
• If the viewing field of the camera is misted up, dirty, covered by a sticker, snow or ice.
A WARNING
Do not let the extra convenience afforded by main beam control tempt you into taking any risks when driving-this can cause acci-dents. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
A WARNING (Continued)
• Always check the lights yourself and ad-just them to the prevailing conditions for lights, vision and road traffic.
• The main beam control may not be able to recognise all driving situations correctly and may not work properly in certain situations.
• If the camera's field of view is dirty, cov-ered or damaged, the function of the main beam assist may be impaired. This also ap-plies If changes are made to the vehicle's lighting system, for example if additional headlights are fitted.
CD
Please observe the following points in order to avoid impairing the proper function of the sys-tem:
• Regularly clean the camera's field of view, and keep it free from snow and ice.
• Do not cover the camera's field of view.
• Check the area of the windscreen that Is in the camera's field of view for damage.
m The headlight flasher and the main beam can W be switched on and off manually at any time with the turn signal and main beam lever =>page 107.
m Light-emitting objects in the camera's field of W operation, e.g. mobile navigation devices, could impair the functions of the main beam assist system (Light Assist).

• Only fold the exterior mirrors in or out when there is nobody in the path of the mir-ror.
• Always ensure that no fingers are caught between the exterior mirror and the foot of the mirror when the exterior mirror is moved.
A WARNING
If you estimate the distance from traffic be-hind you Incorrectly, you can cause acci-dents and serious injuries.
• Curved mirrors (convex or aspheric) en-large the field of vision and can make objects in the mirror seem smaller and further away than they actually are.
• Using curved mirrors to estimate the dis-tance from other vehicles behind you when changing lanes can provide inaccurate re-sults and can lead to accidents and severe in-juries.
• Whenever possible, use the interior mirror to check the exact distance between your ve-hicle and following traffic or other objects.
• Ensure that you have a good view to the rear of the vehicle. .,..
