Useful information

This Owner's Manual describes all models

and all standard and optional equipment

available to your vehicle at the time of pub-

lication of the Owner's Manual. Country-

specific deviations are possible. Please

note that your vehicle may not be equipped

with all features described. This also

applies to safety-relevantsystems and

functions.

Please read the information on qualified

specialist workshops (Y page 22).

Exterior lighting

Important safety notes

Forreasons of safety, Mercedes-Benzrecom-

mends that you drive with the lights switched

on even during the daytime. In some coun-

tries, operation of the headlamps varies due

to legal requirements and self-imposed obli-

gations.

Notes on driving abroad

To convert to symmetrical dipped beam

when driving abroad: switch the headlamps

to symmetrical dipped beam in countries in

which traffic drives on the opposite side of the

road to the country where the vehicle is reg-

istered. This prevents glare to oncoming traf-

fic. When using symmetrical lights, the edge

of the carriageway is not lit as widely and as

far ahead as normal.

Convert the headlamps as close to the border

as possible before driving in these countries

(Y page 201).

Convert to asymmetrical dipped beam

after returning: convert the headlamps back

to asymmetrical dipped beam as soon as pos-

sible after crossing the border when returning

(Y page 201).

If the headlamps are converted to symmetri-

cal dipped beam, the "motorway mode" and

"extended range foglamps" functions (Intelli-

gent Light System) are not available.

IntelligentLight System

Important notes

The Intelligent Light System is a systemthat

adjusts the headlamps automatically to suit

the prevailing driving and weather conditions.

It offers advanced functions for improved illu-

mination of the road surface, e.g. depending

on the vehicle speed or weather conditions.

The system includes the active light function,

cornering light function, motorway mode and

extended range foglamps. The system is only

active when it is dark.

You can activate or deactivate the "Intelligent

Light System" using the on-board computer

(Y page 201).

Exterior lighting

Lights and windscreen wipers

Active lightfunction

The active light function is a system that

moves the headlamps according to the steer-

ing movements of the front wheels. In this

way, relevant areas remainilluminated while

driving. This allows you to recognise pedes-

trians, cyclists and animals.

Active: when the lights are switched on.

Cornering light function

The cornering light function improves the illu-

mination of the road over a wide angle in the

direction you are turning, enabling better vis-

ibility in tightbends, for example. The corner-

ing light function can only be activated when

the dipped-beam headlamps are switched on.

Active:

if you are driving at speeds below

40 km/h and switch on the turn signal or

turn the steering wheel.

if you are driving at speeds between

40 km/h and 70 km/h and turn the steer-

ing wheel.

Not active: if you are driving at speeds above

40 km/h or switch off the turn signal or turn

the steering wheel to the straight-ahead posi-

tion.

The cornering light function may remain lit for

a short time, but is automatically switched off

after no more than three minutes.

Motorway mode

Motorway mode increases the range of the

beam.

Active:

if you are driving at speeds above

110 km/hand do not make any large steer-

ing movements for 1000 m

if you are driving at speeds above

130 km/h

Not active: if you are driving at speeds below

80 km/h following activation.

Extended range foglamps

The extended range foglamps reduce the

glare experienced by the driver and improve

100

Exterior lighting

Lights and windscreen wipers

the illumination of the edge of the carriage-

way.

Active: if you are driving at speeds below

70 km/h and youswitch on the rear foglamp

Not active: if you are driving at speeds above

100km/h or if you switch off the rear foglamp

following activation

Adaptive Highbeam Assist

WARNING

Adaptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid

designed to assist driving. The driver is

responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting

to the prevailing light, visionand traffic con-

ditions.

The system may be impaired or deactivated:

if there is poor visibility, e.g.due to snow,

rain, fog or spray

if the area of the windscreenaround the

optical sensor is dirty, misted up or covered

up, e.g. by a sticker

The system may not recognise the following

road users:

road users that have no lighting, e.g. pedes-

trians

road users that have poor lighting, e.g.

cyclists

road users whose lighting is not clearly visi-

ble, e.g. road users behind a crash barrier

on rare occasions: road users that have

lights that may be recognised too late or not

at all

The automatic main-beam headlamps will not

be deactivated, or they may be activated

despite road users travelling in front of or

approaching the vehicle.

Thus, you could cause an accident and injure

yourself and others. Always observe traffic

conditions and, if necessary, dip the lights

manually.

You can use this function to set the head-

lamps to change between dipped beamand

main beam automatically. The system recog-

nises vehicles with theirlights on, either

approaching fromthe opposite direction or

travelling in front of your vehicle, and conse-

quently switches the headlamps from main

beam to dipped beam.

The system automatically adapts the dipped-

beam headlamp range depending on the dis-

tance to the other vehicle. Once the system

no longer detects any other vehicles, it reac-

tivates the main-beam headlamps.

The system's optical sensor is located behind

the windscreen near the overhead control

panel.

To activate: activate the Adaptive High-

beam Assist function using the on-board

computer (Y page 202).

Turn the light switch to Ã.

Press the combination switch beyond the

pressure point in the direction of

arrow : (Y page 98).

The _ indicator lamp in the multifunc-

tion display lights up if it is dark and the

light sensor activates the dipped-beam

headlamps.

If you are driving at speeds above

45 km/h:

the headlamp range is setautomatically

depending on the distance between the

vehicle and other road users.

If you are driving at speeds above

55 km/h and no other road users are rec-

ognised:

the main-beam headlamps are switched on

automatically. The K indicator lamp in

the instrumentcluster also lights up.

If you are driving at speeds below

45 km/h or other road users are recog-

nised or the roads are adequately lit:

the main-beam headlamps are switched off

automatically. The K indicator lamp in

the instrumentcluster goes out. The _

indicator lamp in the multifunction display

remains lit.

To deactivate: move the combination

switch back to its normal position.

The _ indicator lamp in the multifunc-

tion display goes out.

Headlamps misted up on the inside

The headlamps may mist up on the inside if

there is high atmospheric humidity.

Drive with the headlamps switched on.

The level of moisture diminishes, depend-

ing on the length of the journey and the

weatherconditions (humidity and temper-

ature).

If the level of moisture does not diminish:

Have the headlamps checked at a qualified

specialist workshop.

Replacing bulbs

Important safety notes

Xenon bulbs

DANGER

Xenon bulbs are under high voltage. If you

touch the electrical contacts of a xenon bulb,

you could suffer an electric shock and be seri-

ously or even fatally injured. For this reason,

do not remove the cover of xenon bulbs.

Do not change the xenon bulbs yourself, but

have them replaced at a qualified workshop.

If your vehicle is equipped with xenon bulbs,

you can recognise this by the following: the

cone of light from the xenon bulbs moves

from the top to the bottom and back again

when you start the engine. For this to be

observed, the lights must be switched on

before starting the engine.

Bulbs and lamps are an important aspect of

vehicle safety. You must therefore make sure

that these function correctly at all times.

Have the headlamp setting checked regularly.

Other bulbs

WARNING

Bulbs and lamps can be very hot. You should

therefore allow them to cool down before you

change them. Otherwise, you could be burned

if you touch them.

Keep bulbs out of the reach of children. Oth-

erwise, they could damage the bulbs, for

example, and injure themselves.

Replacing bulbs

103

Lights and windscreen wipers

Never use a bulb which has been dropped.

Such a bulb may break or even explode and

injure you.

Halogenbulbs are pressurised and can

explode when you change them, particularly

if they are very hot.You should therefore wear

eye protection and gloves when you are

changing them.

There are bulbs other than the xenon bulbs

that you cannot replace. Replace only the

bulbs listed (Y page 104). Have the bulbs that

you cannot replace yourself changed at a

qualified specialist workshop.

If you require assistance changing bulbs, con-

sult a qualified specialist workshop.

Do not touch the glass tube of new bulbs with

your bare hands. Even minor contamination

can burn into the glass surface and reduce

the service life of the bulbs. Always use a lint-

free cloth or only touch the base of the bulb

when fitting.

Only use bulbs of the correcttype.

If the new bulb still does notlight up, consult

a qualified specialist workshop.

Bulbs and lamps are an importantaspect of

erly if the wiper blades are worn.This could

prevent you from observing the traffic condi-

tions, thereby causing an accident. Replace

the wiper blades twice a year, ideally in spring

and autumn.

Do not operate the windscreen wipers

when the windscreen is dry, as this could

damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dust

that has collected on the windscreen can

scratch the glass if wiping takes place when

the windscreen is dry.

If it is necessary to switch on the wind-

screen wipers in dry weather conditions,

always operate them using washer fluid.

If the windscreen wipers leave smears on

the windscreen after the vehicle has been

washed in an automatic car wash, this may

be due to wax or other residue. Cleanthe
