Lights - BMW K1600GTL Rider's Manual

If the high beam headlight
4
is switched on whilst the
daytime running light is switched
60
on, the daytime running light
will be switched off after ap-
prox. 2 seconds, and the high
beam headlight, low beam head-
light, front side lights and, if ap-
plicable, the auxiliary headlights
will be switched on.
If the high beam headlight is
switched off again, the daytime
z
running light is not automat-
ically reactivated, but must be
switched on again if required.
Automatic daytime riding
light
The automatic riding light
control system cannot re-
place your personal assessment
of lighting conditions. The sensor
cannot detect fog or drizzle, for
example.
In such situations the low beam
headlight must be switched on
manually, as otherwise a safety
risk would occur.
The changeover between
daytime running light and
low beam headlight including
front side lights can be effected
automatically.
On account of the limited
space available, the beams
that are part of the light symbol
do not show when the volume
bar appears on the display.
