The hazard warning lamps automatically

switch on if:

R

an air bag is deployed

R

the vehicle decelerates rapidly from a

speed of above 45 mph (70 km/h) and

comes to a standstill

The hazard warning lamps switch off

automatically if the vehicle reaches a speed

of above 6 mph (10 km/h) again after a full

brake application.

i

The hazard warning lamps still operate if

the ignition is switched off.

Cornering light function

The cornering light function improves the

illumination of the road over a wide angle in

the direction you are turning, enabling better

visibility in tight bends, for example. It can

only be activated when the low-beam

headlamps are switched on.

Active:

R

if you are driving at speeds below 25 mph

(40 km/h) and switch on the turn signal or

turn the steering wheel

R

if you are driving at speeds between

25 mph (40 km/h) and 45 mph (70 km/h)

and turn the steering wheel

Not active: if you are driving at speeds above

25 mph (40 km/h) or switch off the turn

signal or turn the steering wheel to the

straight-ahead position.

The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short

time, but is automatically switched off after

no more than three minutes.

Active light function

The active light function is a system that

moves the headlamps according to the

steering movements of the front wheels. In

this way, relevant areas remain illuminated

while driving. This allows you to identify

pedestrians, cyclists and animals.

Active: when the lights are switched on.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist

Important safety notes

G

WARNING

Adaptive Highbeam Assist does not recognize

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

may fail to recognize other road users that

have lights, or may recognize them too late.

In this or similar situations, the automatic

high-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 high-beam headlamps in

good time.
