Rain lights
If you switch on the windscreen wipe in the operation rain sensor* for longer than 10
seconds or in the operation permanent wipe (position 2 or 3) ⇒ page 63 switching on
for longer than 15 seconds, the side lights and low beam are switched on automati-
cally. The light switches off if the windscreen wipe is in operation rain sensor* for more
than 4 minutes or is not switched on in the operation permanent wipe.
WARNING
The automatic light control only operates as a support. The driver is not
released from his responsibility to inspect the light and if necessary to switch on
the light depending on the light conditions. The light sensor cannot detect for
example rain or snow. For these conditions we recommend to switch on the low
beam  !
Note
•
Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not impair its
function or put it out of operation.
•
The same principles as for using the automatic light control also apply to the light
which is switched on manually ⇒ page 53.
Cornering lights*
The cornering lights are used to illuminate the curves by means of the cone of light
swiveling together with the front headlight with Xenon lights*. This function is active
when the speed of the car increases to more than 10km/h.
The swiveling function of the headlights can be switched off / on via the menu point
Assistant in the main menu of the Information display* ⇒ page 24.
WARNING
If the cornering lights are defective, the headlights are automatically lowered to
the emergency position, which prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming traffic.
Thus the illuminated length of the road is shortened. Drive carefully and have
the car inspected immediately by a specialist garage.
