The light distribution of the halogen and full-
LED headlights allows the specific "tourist
light" values to be met without the need for
stickers or changes in the settings.
Note
"Tourist light" is only allowed temporarily. If
you are planning a long stay in a country that
drives on the other side, you should take the
vehicle to an Authorised Technical Service to
change the headlights.

table, it is possible to select intermediary positions.
Dynamic headlight range control
The control is not mounted in vehicles with
dynamic headlight range control. The head-
light range is automatically adjusted accord-
ing to the vehicle load status when they are
switched on.
Instrument panel lighting
is With the ignition on and without light activa-
tion, the instrument panel lighting remains
activated in daytime light conditions. The
lighting is reduced as the exterior light di-
minishes. In some cases, e.g. when driving
through a tunnel without the  function
active, the instrument panel lighting may
even switch off. The objective of this function
is to provide the driver with a visual indica-
tion that he or she should activate the dip-
ped beam.
WARNING
Heavy objects in the vehicle may mean that
the headlights dazzle and distract other driv-
ers. This could result in a serious accident.
● Adjust the light beam to the vehicle load
status so that it does not blind other drivers.
