Adaptive Highbeam Assist

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

In

very rare cases, Adaptive Highbeam Assist

recognises road users too late or not at all. In

this, or in similar situations, the automatic

main-beam headlamps will not be deactivated

or activated regardless. There is a risk of an

accident.

Always carefully observe the traffic conditions

and switch off the main-beam headlamps in

good time.

You can use this function to set the head-

lamps to change between dipped beam and

main beam automatically. The system recog-

nises vehicles with their lights on, either

approaching from the opposite direction or

travelling in front of your vehicle, and conse-

quently switches the headlamps from main

beam to dipped beam.

The system automatically adapts the dipped-

beam headlamp range depending on the dis-

tance to the other vehicle. Once the system

no longer detects any other vehicles, it reac-

tivates the main-beam headlamps.

The system's optical sensor is located behind

the windscreen near the overhead control

panel.
