Headlight Assist; Fig. 31 - Skoda Octavia Owner's Manual

The mode is active at speeds of 15 – 70 km/h and if the rear fog light is switched
on for a period of time longer than 10 seconds. The mode is deactivated when the
rear fig light is switched off for longer than 5 seconds.
Dynamic cornering lights
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adjusted to the steering angle so that
the road in the curve is illuminated. This function is active at speeds greater than
10 km.h and in all AFS modes.
Tourist light (Travel mode)
This mode makes it possible to drive in countries with opposing traffic system
(driving on the left/right) without dazzling the oncoming vehicles.
When the "tourist light" mode is active, the above-mentioned modes and the side
swivel of the headlights is deactivated.
The "Tourist light" mode can be configured in the Infotainment
structions for Infotainment, chapter Vehicle settings (CAR button).
WARNING
If the AFS system is defective, the headlights are automatically lowered to the
emergency position, which prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming traffic.
This reduces the cone of light in front of the vehicle. Drive carefully and visit a
specialist garage as soon as possible.
Note
If the Eco driving mode is selected, the AFS system is deactivated
