Instrument lightingDifferent display and instrument lighting is
switched on depending on key position, see
page 78.
The display lighting is automatically subdued
in darkness - the sensitivity is set with the
thumbwheel.The intensity of the instrument lighting is
adjusted with the thumbwheel.
Headlamp levellingThe load in the car changes the vertical align-
ment of the headlamp beam, which could daz-
zle oncoming motorists. Avoid this by adjusting
the height of the beam. Lower the beam if the
car is heavily laden.
1. Leave the engine running, or have the car's
electrical system in key position I.
2. Roll the thumbwheel up/down to raise/
lower beam alignment.
Cars with active Xenon headlamps* have auto-
matic headlamp levelling and are therefore not
equipped with the thumbwheel.

Light switch in position AUTO.
Activate/deactivate AHB by moving the left-
hand stalk switch towards the steering wheel
to the end position and release. Deactivation
when main beam is on means that the lights
switch directly to dipped beam.
Headlamp control and stalk switch.
When AHB has been activated the symbol
illuminates in the combined instru-
ment panel's display. When main beam has
been activated the
symbol also illumi-
nates in the combined instrument panel.
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the
camera sensor clean from ice, snow, mist
and dirt.
Do not attach or fit anything to the wind-
screen in front of the camera sensor, as this
could reduce or prevent the function of one
or more camera-dependent systems.
If the message AHB temporary unavailableis shown in the combined instrument panel's
display then you have to switch manually
between main and dipped beam. However, the
headlamp control may nevertheless be in posi-
tion
. The same applies if the message
Windscreen Sensors blocked and the
symbol are shown. The sym-
bol goes out when these messages are shown.
AHB may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in sit-
uations with dense fog or heavy rain. When
AHB becomes available again, or the wind-
screen sensors are no longer covered, themessage goes out and the
symbol illu-
minates.
WARNING
AHB is an aid for using optimum light com-
position when conditions are favourable.
The driver always bears responsibility for
manually switching between main and
dipped beam when traffic situations or
weather conditions so require.

IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching
between main and dipped beam may be
required:
•In heavy rain or dense fog
•In snow flurries or slush
•In moonlight
•When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
•When the traffic ahead has weak light-
ing
•If there are pedestrians on or beside the
road
•If there are highly reflective objects such
as signs in the vicinity of the road
•When the lighting from oncoming traffic
is obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
•When there is traffic on connecting
roads
•On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
•In sharp bends.
For more information on the limitations of the
camera sensor, see page 178.
Tunnel detection*In cars with rain sensor* the rain sensor detects
the changed light conditions when the car ise.g. driven into a tunnel, and dipped beam is
activated within a second in markets without
automatic dipped beam. Dipped beam is deac-
tivated approx. 20 seconds after the car has
been driven out of the tunnel. Note! - The head-
lamp control must be in
position for tun-
nel detection to work.
Active Xenon headlamps - ABL*

and activated (right) respectively.
If the car is equipped with active Xenon head-
lamps Active Bending Lights - ABL the light
from the headlamps follows the steering wheel
movement in order to provide maximum light-
ing in bends and junctions and so provide
increased safety.The function is activated automatically when
the car is started. In the event of a fault in the
function the
symbol illuminates in the
combined instrument panel at the same time
as the information display shows an explana-
tory text and a further illuminated symbol.

Washing the windscreenMove the stalk switch toward the steering
wheel to start the windscreen and headlamp
washers.
The windscreen wipers will make several more
sweeps and the headlamps are washed once
the stalk switch has been released.
Heated washer nozzles*The washer nozzles are heated automatically
in cold weather to prevent the washer fluid
freezing solid.
High-pressure headlamp washing*High-pressure headlamp washing consumes a
large quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, the
headlamps are washed automatically at every
fifth windscreen wash cycle.
Reduced washingIf only approx. 1 litre of washer fluid remains in
the reservoir and the message that you should
fill the washer fluid is shown in the combined
instrument panel's display, then the supply of
washer fluid to the headlamps is switched off.

Handheld unit storage and charging station.
•The handheld alcolock unit is released by
depressing it slightly in its holder and
releasing it - it then springs out and can be
removed from the holder.
•Replace the handheld unit in the holder by
pushing it in until it engages.
•Store the handheld unit in the holder - this
provides it with the best protection and
keeps its batteries fully charged.
Before starting the engineThe Alcolock is activated automatically and is
then ready for use when the car is opened.
1. When the indicator lamp (6) is green the
Alcolock is ready for use.
2. Withdraw the Alcolock from its holder. If
the Alcolock is outside the car when it isunlocked then it must first be activated
with the switch (2).
3. Fold up the nozzle (1), take a deep breath
and blow with an even pressure until a
"click" is heard after approx. 5 seconds.
The result will be one of the alternatives in
the following table Result after breath
test.
4. If no message is shown then the transmis-
sion to the car may have failed - in which
case, press the button (3) to transmit the
result to the car manually.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.111 To bear in mind
Before the breath testIn order to obtain correct function and as accu-
rate a measurement result as possible:
•Avoid eating or drinking approx.
5 minutes before the breath test.
•Avoid excess windscreen washing - the
alcohol in the washer fluid may result in an
incorrect measurement result.
Change of driverIn order to ensure that a new breath test is car-
ried out in the event of a change of driver -
depress the switch (2) and the send button (3)
simultaneously for approx. 3 seconds. At
which point the car returns to start inhibition
mode and a new approved breath test is
required before starting the engine.
Calibration and serviceThe Alcolock must be checked and calibrated
at a workshop2 every 12 months.
30 days before recalibration is necessary the
display shows
Alcoguard Calibr. required. If
calibration is not carried out within these 30
days then normal engine starting will be
blocked - only starting with the Bypass func-tion will then be possible, see page 111 sec-
tion Emergency situation.
The message can be cleared by pressing the
send button (3) once. Otherwise it goes out on
its own after approx. 2 minutes but then reap-
pears each time the engine is started - only
recalibration at a workshop
2 can clear the mes-
sage permanently.
Cold or hot weatherThe colder the weather the longer it takes
before the Alcolock is ready for use:
Temperature (ºC)Maximum heat-
ing time (sec-
onds)
+10 to +8510
-5 to +1060
-40 to -5180
At temperatures below -20 ºC or above
+60 ºC the Alcolock requires additional power
supply. The display shows
Alcoguard insert
power cable. In which case, connect the
power supply cable from the glovebox and wait
until indicator lamp (6) is green.In extremely cold weather the heating time can
be reduced by taking the Alcolock indoors.
Emergency situationIn the event of an emergency situation or the
Alcolock is out of order, it is possible to bypass
the Alcolock in order to drive the car.
NOTE
All Bypass activation is logged and saved in
memory, see page 8 in the section, Record-
ing data.
After the Bypass function has been activated
the display shows Alcoguard Bypass
enabled the whole time while driving and can
only be reset by a workshop2.
The Bypass function can be tested without the
error message being logged - in which case,
carry out all the steps without starting the car.
The error message is cleared when the car is
locked.
When the Alcolock is installed, either the
Bypass or Emergency function is selected as
the bypassing option. This setting can be
changed afterwards at a workshop
2.
