2014 C250 Adaptive Headlights - High Beams - How to leave on?

Anyone know if the high beams on the Adaptive headlights can be selected on? You can pull the signal lever towards you and the high beams come on as long as you hold the lever. Is there a way to leave HB on without having to hold the lever? If you hold the lever longer than about 1 minute then the HB selection on the lever is disabled and the headlight switch has to be cycled off/on to re-enable the HB turn signal lever selector.

in my CLS you just push the stock forward until you see the headlight sign with an "A" on it.

Not to sound like an ***, your owners manual clearly shows how all the features of the car work......including the high beams

Well just my two cents here, but you should really read the manual. There is a lot of info in there that it might not even come across as a question to post in the forum, and you might miss as a feature in the car.

Sparky needs a spanking and put in timeout

Seriously, you need to read your manuals. THEN if you can't find the answer, then feel fine to ask on the forums.

As @Capt_Paul said, you should check the manual first. He really isn't being a jerk -- he's just stating a fact.

What you're looking for *is* in the manual on page 109.
