matically if the vehicle reaches a speed of

brake application.
The hazard warning lamps still operate if the
ignition is switched off.

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. It can only
be activated when the low-beam headlamps
are switched on.
Active:
if you are driving at speeds below 25 mph
R
(40 km/h) and switch on the turn signal or
turn the steering wheel
if you are driving at speeds between
R
25 mph (40 km/h) and 45 mph (70 km/h)
and turn the steering wheel
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after
no more than three minutes.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist

General notes
You can use this function to set the head-
lamps to change between low beam and high
beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in
front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlamps from high beam to
low beam.
