Lights and visibility
Self directional headlights*
When driving around bends, the headlights will light the
most important areas of the road.
This cornering light gives better illumination of the side of the road and the
corner area. The dynamic lighting is controlled automatically according to
speed and the steering wheel angle.
The two main headlights move at different angles to avoid that the front of the
vehicle is left completely in the dark.
Note
The system operates from a speed of about 10 km/h.
Cornering light*
This is an additional light source to dipped headlights to light
up the road as a bend is taken.
The cornering light operates with the lights switched on and when driving at

flashers are operated.
