lamps from main beam to dipped beam. Once
the system no longer detects any other vehicles,
it switches on the main-beam headlamps again.
The system's optical sensor is located behind
the windscreen near the overhead control
panel.
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Adaptive Highbeam Assist does not recognise
road users:
R
who have no lights, e.g. pedestrians
R
who have poor lighting, e.g. cyclists
R
whose lighting is blocked, e.g. by a barrier
On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam
Assist may fail to recognise other road users
that have lights, or may recognise them too
late. In this, or in similar situations, the auto-
matic main-beam headlamps will not be deac-
tivated or will be activated despite the pres-
ence of other road users. There is a risk of an
accident.
Always carefully observe the traffic conditions
and switch off the main-beam headlamps in
good time.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist cannot take into
account road, weather or traffic conditions.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are
responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting
to the prevailing light, visibility and traffic con-
ditions.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can be
restricted if there is:
R
poor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or
snow
R
dirt on the sensors or if the sensors are
obscured

imately 30 km/h and no other road users are
recognised:
The main-beam headlamps are switched on
automatically. The
K
indicator lamp in the
instrument cluster also lights up.
If you are driving at speeds below 25 km/h or
other road users are recognised or the roads
are adequately lit:
The main-beam headlamps are switched off
automatically. The
K
indicator lamp in the
instrument cluster goes out. The
