Lamps
Parking lamps/low beams
When driving into a tunnel with bright overhead
lighting, switching on of the lights may be
delayed.
A blue sky with the sun low on the horizon can
cause the lights to be switched on.
The low beams remain switched on
regardless of the ambient light when you
switch on the front fog lamps.
When daytime running lamps are activated, the
low beams are always switched into switch
position 3 whenever the ignition is switched
on.<

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 sensors
cannot detect fog of hazy weather. To avoid
safety risks, you should always switch on the
lamps manually under these conditions.<
Parking lamps
In switch position 1, the front, rear and side
vehicle lighting is switched on. You can use the
parking lamps for parking. For lighting on one
side for parking as an additional feature, refer to

The parking lamps drain the battery. Do
not leave them switched on for long peri-
ods of time; otherwise, it may no longer be pos-
sible to start the engine.<

headlamps, you can use the headlamp flasher
control to activate the low beams for a period of
roughly 40 seconds.

Daytime running lamps*
In the switch position 3, the system activates
the low beams and switches them on or off in
response to changes in ambient light condi-
tions, for example in a tunnel, at dawn and dusk,
and in case of precipitation. The LED next to the
symbol is illuminated when the low beams are
on.
If so desired, the light switch can remain in
position 2 or 3.
The exterior lighting is automatically switched
off after switching off the vehicle.
Switch on the parking lamps if required as
described under Parking lamps.
