Models with a digital instrument panel
When AHB is activated, will illuminate
as a white symbol in the instrument panel.
When the high beams are on, the symbol will
change to blue.
NOTE
•
Keep the windshield in front of the
camera free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
•
Do not mount or in any way attach
anything on the windshield that could
obstruct the camera.
If
Active high beam Temporary
unavailable Switch manually is displayed in
the instrument panel, switching between high
and low beams will have to be done man-
ually. However, the light switch can remain in
the
position. The same applies if
Windscreen Sensors blocked is displayed
and the symbol is displayed. The
symbol will go out when these messages are
displayed.
AHB may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in
heavy fog or rain). When AHB becomes active
again or if the sensors in the windshield are
no longer obscured, the messages will disap-
pear and the
symbol will illuminate.

essary to switch between high and low
beams manually:
•
In heavy fog or rain
•
In blowing snow or slush
•
In bright moonlight

In freezing rain
•
In areas with dim street lighting

Tunnel detection (models with the rain
sensor* only)
For models without automatic low beams,
tunnel detection activates the low beams
when the vehicle enters a tunnel. The low
beams are switched off approx. 20 seconds
after the vehicle leaves the tunnel.
The rain sensor reacts to the change in light-
ing conditions when, for example, the vehicle
enters a tunnel and the tunnel detection fea-
ture will then activate the low beam head-
lights. The low beams will be switched off
approx. 20 seconds after the vehicle leaves
the tunnel.
The rain sensor does not have to be activated
for tunnel detection to function.
