Halogen projector headlights with cornering light function
Read and observe
on page 55 first.
For a better cornering illumination, the halogen projector headlights with cor-
nering light function are set in the optimal position in line with the vehicle
speed and the steering angle.
WARNING
If the halogen projector headlights with cornering light function are faulty,
the headlights are automatically lowered to the emergency position, which
prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming traffic. Thus the illuminated
length of the road is shortened. Drive carefully and visit a specialist garage
as soon as possible.
