Note
● When you turn the ignition off without hav-
ing turned the turn signals off, an acoustic
signal sounds while the driver door is open.
This is intended as a reminder to switch off
the turn signal, unless you wish to leave the
parking light on.
● If the convenience turn signals are oper-
ating (three flashes) and the other conven-
ience turn signals are switched on, the active
part stops flashing and only flashes once in
the new part selected.
● The turn signal only works when the igni-
tion is switched on. The hazard warning lights
also work when the ignition is switched off.
● The main beam headlights can only be
switched on if the dipped beam headlights
are already on.
● If a trailer turn signal malfunctions, the
control lamp will stop flashing (trailer turn
signals) and the vehicle turn signal will flash
at double speed.
● In cold or damp weather conditions, the
headlights, tail lights and turn signals may
mist up inside temporarily. This is normal and
in no way effects the useful life of the vehicle
lighting system.
● The parking light does not activate auto-
matically if the left- or right-hand turn signal
is left on and the ignition is disconnected.

Main beam assist (Light Assist)
The main beam assist automatically prevents
glare from vehicles moving in the opposite di-
rection or ahead in the same direction. In addi-
tion, the main beam assist detects illuminated
areas and disconnects the main beam head-
light when passing, e.g. by populated areas.
Within its limitations, the assist system auto-
matically connects or disconnects the main
beam headlight depending on the environ-
mental and traffic conditions, as well as the
›››
speed
.
Advanced main beam assistant (LED Matrix)
The advanced main beam assistant provides
maximum illumination of the road and road-
side. At the same time, it avoids dazzling vehi-
cles ahead or oncoming traffic.
The system uses a camera to detect other road
users and deactivates certain areas within the
light distribution in a specific manner. If the
system cannot avoid dazzling other road users,
the main beam is switched off completely.
The advanced main beam assistant normally
recognizes illuminated areas such as cities
and deactivates the main beam while driving
through them.
Within the limits of the system, the assistant
automatically switches the main beam on or
off depending on the ambient conditions, traf-
fic conditions and driving speed.
The advanced main beam assistant can be
switched on or off in the vehicle settings in the
Infotainment System.
