The headlamps are designed so that they
illuminate the edge of the carriageway for
a particularly long distance.
The beam is asymmetrical.
If vehicle is driven in countries where traf-
fic drives on opposite side of the road to
that of country where vehicle was ap-
proved, the beam falls not on the edge of
the carriageway, but onto the opposite car-
riageway.
This will dazzle road users travelling in the
opposite direction.
The area of the headlamp lens to be cov-
ered may be seen in the relevant illustra-
tion below for the vehicle.
Prepare adhesive tape using commer-
cially approved opaque adhesive tape
in accordance with the dimensions,
apply to corresponding area of the
headlamp.

Risk of accident
G
In countries where vehicles drive on the op-
posite side of the road to that of the country
where vehicle was approved, there is a risk
of dazzling from the asymmetrical dipped
beam.
To prevent dazzling of oncoming traffic, cov-
er over headlamps with adhesive tape, fol-
lowing the details issued by Mercedes-Benz.

Comply with national legislation when
vehicle is operated in other countries
and when used for international trans-
port work.
The responsibility for vehicle lighting al-
ways rests with the driver.
