gear is engaged, both corner lights

High beam assist
This feature allows high beam as
main driving light by night and when
vehicle speed is faster than 25 mph.
It switches to low beam when:
■ the camera in the windscreen
detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles
■ the vehicle speed is slower than
12 mph
■ it is foggy or snowy
■ driving in urban areas
If there are no restrictions detected,
the system switches back to high
beam.

The high beam assist is activated by
pushing the indicator lever twice with
a speed above 25 mph.
The green control indicator

Deactivation
Push indicator lever once. It is also
deactivated when front fog lights are
switched on.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is on, the high beam
assist will be deactivated.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is off, the high beam
assist will stay activated.
High beam assist is always active
after the ignition is switched on.
Intelligent light ranging with
automatic high beam activation
Intelligent light ranging uses the
properties of Bi-Xenon headlights to
extend the light range of the low
beams by up to 400 metres and
additionally activates automatic high
beam without dazzling or disturbing
oncoming or preceding traffic.
High beam is deactivated and the low
beam light range will be reduced to
avoid dazzling when the following
restrictions are detected by the front
camera in the windscreen:
■ a preceding vehicle is recognised,
■ an oncoming vehicle is recognised,
■ urban areas are entered,
■ it is foggy or snowy.
