Low beams
The parking lamps can be switched on as
needed as described under Parking lamps.
Automatic headlamp control*, daytime run-
ning lamps*, and Adaptive Head Light*
You can have the daytime running lamps
activated on your vehicle.<
If you open the driver's door when the ignition is
switched off, then the exterior lighting is
switched off if the light switch is in position 0, 2,
or 3.
Automatic headlamp control*
In switch position 3, the low beams are
switched on or off automatically, for example in
tunnels, at dawn and dusk, and in the event of
precipitation. The Adaptive Head Light* is acti-
vated.
Switch on the parking lamps as needed, switch
position 1.
Parking lamps
In switch position 1, the vehicle is lit on all sides.
You can use the parking lamps for parking.
When you enter a tunnel with bright ceiling
lighting, this can delay the switching on of your
low beams.
The headlamps can also come on when the sun
is low on the horizon in a blue sky.
The parking lamps will discharge the bat-
tery. For this reason, avoid using them for
extended periods; otherwise, it may no longer
be possible to start the engine. It is preferable to
switch on the one-sided roadside parking
lamps, refer to page 59.<
The low beams remain switched on
regardless of the ambient light when you
switch on the front fog lamps*.
When the daytime running lamps are activated,
refer to page 58, the low beam headlamps are
always switched on when the switch is in
position 3 and the ignition is switched on.<
Low beams
The low beams light up when the switch is in
position 2 and the ignition is on.
If so desired, the light switch can remain in
position 3. The exterior lamps are automatically
switched off after the vehicle is switched off.
Defective lamps
The indicator lamp lights up:
At least one bulb of the exterior lighting
on the vehicle is defective.
Replacing bulbs, refer to page 104.
