Note
■
The headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched
on, the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although
the headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist
has no influence on the life of the lighting system.
■
If the visibility is poor and the lights are not on (except daytime running light)
the brightness of the instrument lighting reduces to alert the driver to switch
on the lights in due time.
■
The brightness of the instrument lighting with the lights on (except daytime
running lights) can be set in the Infotainment » Owner´s Manual Infotainment ,
chapter CAR - Vehicle Settings .
