or . Activate main beam by moving
the stalk switch forwards. Deactivate by moving
the stalk switch backwards.
When main beam has been activated the
symbol illuminates in the driver display.
Active main beam
Active main beam is a function which uses a
camera sensor at the top edge of the windscreen
to detect the headlamp beams from oncoming
traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in front, and
then switches from main beam to dipped beam.
The function can also take streetlights into
account.
Main beam is reactivated when the camera sen-
sor no longer sees any oncoming vehicles or
vehicles ahead.

If the active main beam has the on/off functional-
ity
21
then the lighting returns to main beam about
a second after the camera sensor no longer
detects the headlamp beams from oncoming
traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
If the active main beam has adaptive functional-
ity
21
then, unlike what happens during conven-
tional dimming, the light beam continues to illu-
minate with main beam on both sides of oncom-
ing traffic or vehicles ahead - only the part of the
light beam that points directly to the vehicle is
dimmed.
Adaptive functionality: Dipped beam directly towards
oncoming vehicle, but continued main beam on both
sides of the vehicle.
The lighting returns to full main beam about a
second after the camera sensor no longer
detects the headlamp beams from oncoming
traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
Activate/deactivate
The function can start while driving in the dark
when the car's speed is approx. 20 km/h (approx.
12 mph) or higher.
Activate/deactivate active main beam by turning
the stalk switch's rotating ring to position
and release. If active main beam is deactivated
while main beam is on, the lighting is immediately
reset to dipped beam.
When active main beam is activated, the symbol
illuminates with a white glow in the driver
display.
When main beam is activated, the symbol shines
blue. This also applies for LED headlamps if the
main beam is partially dimmed, i.e. if the light
beam shines with slightly more than dipped
beam.
