Headlight range control
Dynamic headlight r
ange control (valid for
vehicles fitted with High headlights)
The headlight range is automatically adjusted
according to the vehicle load status when they
are switched on.
Manual headlight range adjustment (valid
for vehicles fitted with ECO Led headlights)
The headlight range control adapts the dipped
headlight beam to the vehicle's loading condi-
tions. This means that the driver has optimum
visibility conditions without dazzling oncoming
vehicles.
The range of the headlights can be adjusted in
the Infotainment System ›››page40
●
Select
> Vehicle > Lights t
o open
the Headlight range adjustment menu.
●
Select the appropriate level for the vehicle
l
oading conditions.
Levels:
–
0 - Front seats occupied and luggage
compartment empty.
–
2 - All seats occupied and luggage com-
partment empty.
–
4 - All seats occupied and luggage com-
partment full.
–
6 - Driver’s seat occupied and luggage
compartment full.
WARNING
If the dynamic headlight range control fails
or does not w
ork properly, the headlights
could dazzle and distract other road users.
This could cause accidents and lead to seri-
ous injuries.
●
Immediately go to a specialist workshop
and have the headlight range control system
checked.
Driving abroad
The light beam of the dipped beam lights is
asymmetric: the side of the road on which you
are driving is lit more intensely.
When a car that is manufactured in a country
that drives on the right travels to a country that
drives on the left (or vice versa), it is normally
necessary to cover part of the headlight bulbs
with stickers or to change the adjustment of the
headlights to avoid dazzling other drivers.
In such cases, the regulations specify certain
light values that must be complied with for des-
ignated points of the light distribution. This is
known as “Tourist light”.
The light distribution of the headlights allows
the specific “tourist light” values to be met
without the need for stickers or changes being
made to the settings.
Note
“Tourist light” is only allowed temporarily. If
you ar
e planning a long stay in a country that
drives on the other side, you should take the
vehicle to an Authorised Technical Service to
change the headlights.
Interior lights
Lighting of the instrument cluster,
displays and controls
The instrument and control lighting brightness
can be set in the vehicle settings menu of the
infotainment system ›››page40.
The set intensity automatically adapts to
changes in ambient brightness in the vehicle.
When the automatic dipped beam light
is turned on, a sensor automatically turns the
dipped beam light on or o, as well as the in-
strument and control lighting, depending on the
ambient brightness.
In some cases, e.g. when driving through a tun-
nel without the automatic dipped beam light
function switched on, the instrument clus-
ter lighting may even switch o. The objective
of this function is to provide the driver with a
visual indication that he or she should activate
the dipped beam. If your vehicle is fitted with
a digital instrument cluster, the message Turn
on the lights will be displayed on the in-
strument cluster.
