Automatic headlight control
Principle
The low beams are switched on and off au-
tomatically depending on the ambient bright-
ness, for example in tunnels, in twilight or if
there is precipitation.
General information
A blue sky with the sun low on the horizon can
cause the lights to be turned on.
If the low beams are switched on manually, the
automatic headlight control is deactivated.
Activate automatic headlight control
Press the button on the light switch.
The icon in the button illuminates green.
The indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated when the low
beams are switched on.

place your personal judgment of lighting condi-
tions.
For example, the sensors are unable to detect
fog or hazy weather. In these situations, turn
the lights on manually.
