Lights and visibility
Adaptive headlights* (for driving round bends)
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.
Fog lights with cornering function*
This is an additional light source to dipped beam headlights
to light up the road as a bend is taken.
The cornering light operates with the lights switched on and when driving at
less than 40 Km/h. They light up when the steering wheel is turned or the
flashers are operated.
