Operation

Audible warnings to advise the driver that

●

Note

On vehicles with rear lights with bulbs,

when activating the daytime running light

the rear lights are not switched on. A vehi-

cle which does not have the rear lights on

may not be visible to other drivers in the

darkness, in the case of heavy rain or in

conditions of poor visibility.

The legal requirements regarding the use

of vehicle lights in each country must be

observed.

If the key is not in the ignition and the driver

door is open, an audible warning signal is

heard in the following cases: this will remind

you to turn the light off.

The side lights or daytime running lights

are not bright enough to illuminate the road

ahead and to ensure that other road users

are able to see you.

›››

The daytime running lights switch on every

time the ignition is switched on, if the switch is

in positions  or , according to the level of

exterior lighting.

Push the lever all the way down to turn off the

corresponding function.

●

Always use your dipped beam head

lights if it is raining or if visibility is poor.

Convenience turn signals

When the light switch is in position , a light

sensor automatically switches dipped beam

on and off (including the control and instru-

ment lighting) or the daytime running lights

depending on the level of exterior lighting.

For the one-touch signalling, when the igni-

tion is switched on, move the lever as far as

possible upwards or downwards and release

the lever. The turn signal will flash three times.

WARNING

If the headlights are set too high and not

used correctly, there is a risk of dazzling or

distracting other road users. This could re-

sult in a serious accident.

One-touch signalling is activated and deacti-

vated in the Easy Connect system via the 

button and the function button SETTINGS >

The rain sensor detects

tive for a few minutes.

WARNING

●

The main beam headlights can only be

switched on if the dipped beam headlights

are already on.

Improper or lack of use of the turn signals,

or forgetting to deactivate them can con-

fuse other road users. This could result in a

serious accident.

WARNING

If the road is not well lit and other road

users cannot see the vehicle well enough

or at all, accidents may occur.

●

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.

●

Always give warning when you are going

to change lane, overtake or when turning,

activating the turn signal in good time.

●

The automatic dipped beam control

() only switches on the dipped beam

when there are no changes in brightness,

and not, for example when it is foggy.

●

As soon as you have finished changing

lane, overtaking or turning, switch the turn

signal off.

WARNING

Main beam assist (Light Assist)*

The automatic dipped beam control is merely

intended as an aid and is not able to recog-

nise all driving situations.

Incorrect use of the headlights may cause

accidents and serious injury, as the main

beam may distract or dazzle other drivers.

The main beam assist acts within the limits of

the system 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
