Lights and visibility
When driving around bends, the headlights
will light the most important areas of the
road.
This cornering light gives better illumination
of the side of the road and the corner area.
The dynamic lighting is controlled automati-
cally according to speed and the steering
wheel angle.
The two main headlights move at different
angles to avoid that the front of the vehicle is
left completely in the dark.
Note
The system operates from a speed of about
10 km/h (6 mph).
Fog lights with cornering function*
This is an additional light source to dipped
beam headlights to light up the road as a
bend is taken.
The cornering light operates with the lights
switched on and when driving at less than
40 Km/h (25 mph). Ignition occurs by turning
the steering or connecting the turn signal.
Forward gear
●
If the steering wheel is turned to the right,
or the right-hand turn signal operated, the
right-hand fog light turns on.
●
If the steering wheel is turned to the left, or
the left-hand turn signal operated, the left-
hand fog light turns on.
In reverse, both fog lights turn on.
Note
When the fog lamps are on, the cornering
function is activated and both headlights are
continuously on.

WARNING
●
The risk of an accident increases if your ve-
hicle breaks down. Always use the hazard
warning lights and a warning triangle to draw
the attention of other road users to your sta-
tionary vehicle.
●
Due to the high temperatures that the cata-
lytic converter can reach, never park in an
area where the catalytic converter could come
into contact with highly inflammable materi-
als, for example dry grass or spilt petrol. This
could start a fire.
Note
●
The battery will run down if the hazard
warning lights are left on for a long time,
even if the ignition is switched off.
●
The use of the hazard warning lights de-
scribed here is subject to the relevant statu-
tory requirements.
