Cornering light function
The cornering light function improves the illu-
mination of the road over a wide angle in the
direction you are turning, enabling better vis-
ibility in tight bends, for example. The corner-
ing light function can only be activated when
the dipped-beam headlamps are switched on.
Active:
if you are driving at speeds below
R
40 km/h and the turn signal is activated or
the steering wheel is turned.
if you are driving at speeds between
R
40 km/h and 70 km/h and turn the steer-
ing wheel.
Not active: if you are driving at speeds above
40 km/h or switch off the turn signal or turn
the steering wheel to the straight-ahead posi-
tion.
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after
no more than three minutes.
Motorway mode
Motorway mode increases the range of the
beam.
Active:
if you are driving at speeds above
R
110 km/h and do not make any large steer-
ing movements for 1,000 m.
if you are driving at speeds above
R
130 km/h.
Not active: if you are driving at speeds below
80 km/h following activation.
Extended range foglamps
The extended range foglamps reduce the
glare experienced by the driver and improve
the illumination of the edge of the carriage-
way.
Active: if you are driving at speeds below
70 km/h and you switch on the rear foglamp.
Not active: if, following activation, you are
driving at speeds above 100 km/h or if you
switch off the rear foglamp.
Off-road lights
The off-road lights facilitate the early recog-
nition of objects/obstacles when driving off-
road thanks to a symmetrical, wider and
brighter distribution of light from the dipped-
beam headlamps.
Active: when driving at speeds below
50 km/h and the Off-road program is
switched on ( page 215).
Y
Not active: when driving at speeds above
50 km/h.
