The low beams remain switched on inde-
pendent of the ambient lighting condi-
tions when you switch on the fog lamps.
With the daytime driving lamps* activated, the
low beams are always switched on when the
ignition key is in position 2.<
High beams/roadside parking
lamps
The automatic headlamp control cannot
serve as a substitute for your personal
judgment in determining when the lamps
should be switched on in response to ambient
lighting conditions. For example, the system
cannot detect fog. To avoid safety risks, you
should always switch on the lamps manually
under these conditions.<

The concept
You also enjoy the option of lighting up just one
side of your vehicle when parking. When using
this function, comply with national regulations:
Adaptive Head Light is a variable headlamp
control system that enables better illumination
of the road surface. Depending on the steering
angle and other assumptions, the light from the
headlamp follows the course of the road.
With the ignition off, press the lever in the
desired direction 3, past the resistance point.
The roadside parking lamps drain the bat-
tery. Do not switch them on for long peri-
ods of time, otherwise it may no longer be pos-
sible to start the engine.<
Activating Adaptive Head Light
In the switch position 3, the Adaptive Head
Light is active and the automatic headlamp con-
trol* is switched on.
Front fog lamps
To avoid blinding oncoming traffic, the Adaptive
Head Light

Malfunction
The LED next to the symbol for automatic head-
lamp control flashes. Adaptive Head Light is
faulty or has failed. Have the system checked as
soon as possible.
The parking lamps or low beams must
be switched on for the fog lamps to
operate. The green indicator lamp in
the instrument cluster lights up whenever the
fog lamps are on.
The fog lamps are switched off whenever the
high beams are switched on.
