Corner lighting
On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which
illuminates the road at a right angle to
the direction of travel. It is activated
up to a speed of 25 mph.
Control indicator f 3 108.
Reversing function
If the headlights are on and reverse
gear is engaged, both corner lights
are switched on. They remain
illuminated for 20 seconds after
disengaging reverse gear or until
driving faster than 10 mph in
a forward gear.
High Beam Assist
This feature allows high beam as
main driving light by night and when
vehicle speed is faster than 25 mph.
It switches to low beam when:
■ the camera in the windscreen
detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles
■ the vehicle speed is slower than
12 mph
■ it is foggy or snowy
■ driving in urban areas
If there are no restrictions detected,
the system switches back to high
beam.
The green control indicator l
illuminates continuously when the
assist is activated, the blue one 7
illuminates when high beam is on.
Control indicator l 3 108.
The high beam assist is activated by
pushing the indicator lever twice.
To deactivate, push indicator lever
once. It is also deactivated when front
fog lights are switched on.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is on, the high beam
assist will be deactivated.
Lighting
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam is off, the high beam
assist will stay activated.
The latest setting of the high beam
assist will remain after the ignition is
switched on again.
Dynamic automatic headlight
levelling
To prevent oncoming traffic from
dazzle, headlight levelling is
automatically adjusted based on
inclination information measured by
front and rear axle, acceleration or
deceleration and vehicle speed.
Fault in Adaptive forward
lighting system
When the system detects a failure in
the Adaptive forward lighting system,
the system moves to a preset position
to avoid dazzling of oncoming traffic.
If this is not possible the affected
headlight will be automatically
switched off. In any case one
headlight will stay on. A warning is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
