Operation
S
witch the ignition off.
Move the turn signal lever up or down.
When the parking light is switched on, the
front side light and the tail light on the corre-
sponding side of the vehicle turn on.
WARNING
Improper or lack of use of the turn signals,
or f
orgetting to deactivate them can con-
fuse other road users. This could result in a
serious accident.
Always give warning when you are going
to change lane, overtake or when turning,
activating the turn signal in good time.
As soon as you have finished changing
lane, overtaking or turning, switch the turn
signal off.
WARNING
Incorrect use of the headlights may cause
accidents and serious injury, as the main
beam may distr
act or dazzle other drivers.
Note
If the t
urn signal lever is left on after the
key has been taken out of the ignition lock,
an acoustic signal sounds when the driver
door is opened. This is intended as a re-
minder to switch off the turn signal, unless
you wish to leave the parking light on.
If the conv
enience turn signals are oper-
ating (three flashes) and the other conven-
ience turn signals are switched on, the ac-
tive part stops flashing and only flashes
once in the new part selected.
The turn signal only works when the igni-
tion is switched on. The hazard warning
lights also work when the ignition is switch-
ed off.
If a turn signal on the vehicle or trailer is
faulty, the warning lamp flashes twice as
fast as usual.
The main beam headlights can only be
switched on if the dipped beam headlights
are already on.
In cold or damp weather conditions, the
headlights, tail lights and turn signals may
mist up inside temporarily. This is normal
and in no way effects the useful life of the
vehicle lighting system.
The parking light does not activate auto-
matically if the left- or right-hand turn sig-
nal is left on and the ignition is disconnec-
ted.
Main beam assist (Light Assist)
The main beam assist acts within the limits of
the syst
em and depending on environmental
and traffic conditions. Once switched on, the
system is activated as of a speed of about 60
km/h (37 mph) and is deactivated below
about 30 km/h (18 mph)

.
When the syst
em is activated and the cam-
era detects other vehicles that may be daz-
zled, the main beam is automatically switch-
ed off. Otherwise, the main beam is automati-
cally switched on.
The main beam assist generally detects illu-
minated areas and deactivates the main
beam when passing through a town, for ex-
ample.
