Lights

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Parking light and low beam
Unless otherwise stated, the lights only work when the ignition is switched
on.
The arrangement of the controls right-hand drive models may differ from the
layout shown in
» Fig. 36
on page 53. The symbols which mark the positions
of the controls are identical.
WARNING
The activation of the lights should only be undertaken in accordance with
national legal requirements.
The driver is always responsible for the correct settings and use of the
lights.
1)
On vehicles with a MAXI DOT display, the  symbol also lights up in the light switch.
WARNING (Continued)
The automatic driving lamp control  only operates as a support and
does not release the driver from his responsibility to check the light and, if
necessary, to switch on the light depending on the given light conditions.
The light sensor cannot, for example, detect rain or snow. Under these con-
ditions we recommend switching on the low beam or fog lights!
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by oth-
53
er oncoming traffic. Therefore always switch on the low beam when it is
54
dark or if visibility is poor.

Note
56
The headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched
56
on, the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although
56
the headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist
57
has no influence on the life of the lighting system.
