Parking lamps
The front, rear and side vehicle 
lighting is switched on. You can 
use this to signal the position of 
the vehicle when it is parked. For light-
ing on one side for parking as an addi-
tional feature, refer to page 
.
Low beams
When you switch the ignition off 
with the low-beam headlamps 
on, only the parking lamps will 
remain on.
Follow me home lamps
When you activate the headlamp 
flasher after parking the vehicle and 
switching off the lights, the low beams 
will come on for a brief period. 
You can also have this function 
deactivated.

LIGHTS ON warning
Whenever you open the driver's door 
after having turned the ignition key to 
position 0, you will hear an acoustic 
signal for a few seconds to remind you 
that the lamps have not been switched 
off.
Daytime driving lamps*
If you desire, the light switch can be left 
in the low-beam position: when the 
ignition is switched off, the external 
lighting is also switched off.
When required, switch on the parking 
lamps as usual as described under 
Parking lamps.
You can have the activation set-
tings for the daytime driving lamps 
programmed on your vehicle.
<
Automatic headlamp control*
When the switch is in this posi-
tion the system automatically 
responds to changes in ambient 
light – in tunnels, at dusk, etc. – and in 
the event of rain and snow – by switch-
ing the low beams on or off.
The vehicle's external lamps 
remain on constantly when you 
switch on the front fog lamps after the 
headlamps have come on automati-
cally.
<
Automatic headlamp control can-
not serve as a substitute for your 
personal judgement in determining 
when the lamps should be switched on. 
For example, the sensors are not able 
to detect fog. In such situations switch 
on the lamp manually, as otherwise a 
safety hazard will result.
<
You can have the sensitivity of 
your vehicle's automatic head-
lamp control adjusted.
