Bi-Xenon Wiring in 2000 ML Harness Connector-Help!

I am getting ready to install the new headlights into my 2000 ML. I looked at the headlamp harness connector. I understand what all of the wires are for with the exception of the following:
Orange in Pin B
Blue in Pin C
Does anyone know what the function of these wires is?

I understand that pink is low beam, Brown is ground, Green is city/parking, white is hi beam and grey is Fog. In all of the previous posts, no one seems to say what the orange and blue are for.
Thanks
Mark

It could be a Euro thing because if you look at the headlight connector, there's no wire connected to pin B & C.

I had looked prior to posting my message and could not find what I needed. I did find Scortie's info but he did not identify what the wires are for. They must do something if Mercedes put them into the connector. Maybe I am being too fussy but I guess that is just the way I look at stuff.

RE: Mark...

Thanks for that info. Unfortunately it does not tell me the function of the wires at locations B and C. I have sent an e-mail to Drew in hopes that if anyone knows the answer , he will.

It probably simply means not applicable to North American Vehicles or you don't have the necessary parts to make it functional like the leveling motor. See Andy's post on this.
