Cars with Xenon headlamps* have automatic
headlamp levelling, so there is no thumbwheel
(3).
Instrument lighting
The instrument lighting is switched on when
the remote control key is in position II and the
headlamp control (1) is in one of the end posi-
tions. The lighting is automatically dimmed
during the day and can be controlled manually
at night.
Roll the thumbwheel (5) up or down for brighter
or dimmer lighting.
Rear fog lamp
The rear fog lamp can only be switched on in
combination with the headlamps.
–
Press the button (4).
The rear fog lamp indicator symbol on the com-
bined instrument panel and the light in the but-
ton illuminate when the rear fog lamp is
switched on.
NOTE
Regulations for use of fog lamps vary from
country to country.
Active Xenon headlamps*
Headlamp pattern for active/non-active head-
lamps.
If the car is equipped with active Xenon head-
lamps (Active Bending Lights, ABL) the light
from the headlamps follows the steering wheel
movement during driving. The function is acti-
vated automatically when the car is started and
can be deactivated/activated using the button
in the centre console, see page 60.
02 Instruments and controls
Daytime running lights during the day.
To save fuel, daytime running lights (Daytime
Running Light) can be selected during the day
instead of the more energy-intensive dipped
beam. The daytime running lights mounted in
the spoiler use bright, low-energy diode tech-
nology.
Press the button (2) and turn the headlamp
control (1) clockwise to the end position in
order to activate the daytime running lights
during daytime. This is regulated by a light sen-
sor which switches from daytime running lights
to dipped beam off the main headlamps at
dusk or when the daylight becomes too weak.
The light in the button illuminates when the
daytime running lights are activated.
NOTE
To achieve minimal energy consumption,
the rear lights are also switched off when
switching automatically from dipped beam
to daytime running lights.
