Daytime running light (DRL)
Warning
Danger of accidents When visibility is poor, the daytime running light is not a sub-
stitute for the low beam.
Automatic switching between the daytime running light and low beam may only be
partially available when visibility is significantly impaired due to fog, snow or rain.
–
Ensure that the appropriate type of lighting is always selected.
–
If necessary switch off the daytime running lights using the menu before going
on a ride or when stopped so that the low beam is switched on permanently.

Note the legal regulations regarding the daytime running light.
The daytime running (DRL)/position light is integrated in the main headlight. The daytime
running light is brighter than the position light.
The daytime running light must only be switched on when visibility conditions are good.
Control is provided by the brightness sensor in the combination instrument. When visibility
conditions are good, the low beam with position light is switched off and the daytime run-
ning light is switched on.
When the daytime running light is switched off, the low beam with position light lights up.
On high beam or headlight flasher, the daytime running light changes automatically to the
position light.
