Cornering Lamps; Hazard Warning Lamps; Headlamp Cleaning System - Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Operating Instructions Manual

Cornering lamps

The cornering lamps improve the illumination
of the road over a wide angle in the direction
you are turning, enabling better visibility in
tight bends, for example.
The cornering light function switches on
automatically, if:
you are traveling at a speed of less than
R
25 mph (40 km/h) and you switch on a turn
signal or turn the steering wheel.
you are traveling at a speeds of between
R
25 mph (40 km/h) and 43 mph (70 km/h)
and turn the steering wheel.
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after
no more than 3 minutes.
If reverse gear is engaged the lamp on the
i
opposite side of the vehicle switches on
instead.
