Parking lamps

In switch position

1, the front, rear and side

vehicle lighting is switched on. You can use the
parking lamps for parking.

The parking lamps drain the battery. Do
not leave them switched on for long peri-

ods of time; otherwise, it may no longer be pos-
sible to start the engine. It is preferable to
switch on the left-hand or right-hand roadside
parking lamps, refer to page

Low beams

The low beams light up when the light switch is
in position

2 and the ignition is on.

Automatic headlamp control

In the switch position

3, the system activates

the low beams and switches them on or off in
response to changes in ambient light condi-
tions, for example in a tunnel, at dawn and dusk,
and in case of precipitation. The LED next to the

symbol is illuminated when the low beams are
on.
The low beams may be switched on when the
sun is low on the horizon in a clear sky.

The low beams remain switched on
regardless of the ambient light when you

switch on the front fog lamps.

The automatic headlamp control cannot
serve as a substitute for your personal

judgment in determining when the lamps
should be switched on in response to ambient
lighting conditions. For example, the sensors
cannot detect fog or hazy weather. To avoid
safety risks, you should always switch on the
lamps manually under these conditions.

Pathway lighting

After parking the vehicle and switching off the
headlamps, you can use the headlamp flasher
control to activate the low beams for a period of
roughly 40 seconds.
Pressing the

button on the remote control,

refer to page

, also switches on the low

beams for approx. 40 seconds. In addition, the
door handle and interior lamps are switched on
for approx. 10 seconds.

Daytime running lamps*

The daytime running lamps light up in posi-
tion

0, 1 or 3. The light output is lower than with

the low-beam headlamps.
If the light switch remains in position

1, then the

parking lamps are lit after the ignition is
switched off.

Adaptive Head Light*

The concept

Adaptive Head Light is a variable headlamp
control system that enables dynamic illumina-
tion of the road surface. Depending on the
steering angle and other parameters, the light
