Important safety notes
1W Left-hand standing lamps
For reasons of safety, Mercedes-Benz
recommends that you drive with the lights
switched on even during the daytime. In some
countries, operation of the headlamps varies
due to legal requirements and self-imposed
obligations. In these countries, the daytime
running lamps are automatically switched on
when the engine is started.

3T Parking lamps, license plate and
instrument lighting
4c Automatic headlamp mode/daytime
running lamps
5L Low-beam/high-beam headlamps
CN Front fog lamps
BR Rear fog lamp
The turn signals, high-beam headlamps and
the high beam flasher are operated using the
combination switch (Y page 120).
Notes on driving abroad
Converting to symmetrical low beam
when driving abroad: switch the headlamps
to symmetrical low beam in countries in
which traffic drives on the opposite side of the
road to the country where the vehicle is
registered. This prevents oncoming traffic
from being dazzled. Symmetrical lights do not
illuminate as large an area of the edge of the
road.

lamps when you leave the vehicle. This
