also switched on again.
If the high beam headlight
is switched on whilst the
daytime running light is switched
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
running light is not automat-
ically reactivated, but must be

Automatic daytime
running light
with daytime running 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.
