This chapter contains information on the following subjects:

Dayl. dri. lights (DAY LIGHT)
Turn signal and main beam
Automatic driving lamp control
Adaptive headlights (AFS)
Fog lights

Parking lights
Unless otherwise stated, the lights only work when the ignition is switched on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in » Fig. 31 on page 48. The symbols which mark the switch po-
sitions are identical.
The low beam continues to shine while the ignition is switched on and the light
switch is in the position  or . After switching off the ignition, the low beam
is switched off automatically and only the side lights come on. The side light goes
out after the ignition key is removed.
Keep the headlights lenses clean. The following guidelines must be ob-
served » page 192, Headlight lenses.

Using the system
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.
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 necessa-
ry, to switch on the light depending on the given light conditions. The light
sensor cannot, for example, detect rain or snow. Under these conditions we
48
recommend switching on the low beam or fog lights!

Note

51 If there is a fault in the light switch, the low beam comes on automatically.
■
The headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched
52 ■
on, the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although the
52
headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist has no
52
influence on the life of the lighting system.
