Understanding the Vehicle

High beam
(B) Motorway

The picture shows the low beam
distribution on the road with the
indication of the brightness increase in
the "motorway beam" condition (B)
compared to normal condition (A).
Combining a bending mode and a
vertical adjustment, the system assures
better visibility of the road surface
when driving on a curve, steering,
or in the event of road deviations,
optimizing vertical and horizontal
light distribution according to the
current drive path.
The increased lateral illumination is
gained through a fixed bending light
or a cornering light (depending on
the market) elaborating information
30
about the steering angle, the vehicle
Light flux
speed and the turn indicator.
1200 lm
The improved vertical illumination, in
1600 lm
case of fast acceleration and/or fast
deceleration, will assure the deeper
1200 lm
illuminated distance from the vehicle,
through a dynamical adaptation of
headlight vertical attitude.
NOTE:
• Each time the adaptive headlight
system is turned on, the headlights
will perform a self-adjustment cycle.
• All AFS functions are available only if
the vehicle is moving forward.
• "Adaptive Front Light" function
can be turned on or off using the
MIA system, refer to "Functions
of Settings Menu on MIA" in
section "Dashboard Instrument and
Controls" for further information.
Adaptive "Full-LED" Headlight
( )
These headlights combines the "Full-
LED" technology to the AFS (Advanced
Frontlighting System) adaptive
functions, using a forward-facing
camera located on the windshield
behind the internal rear-view mirror.
"Full-LED" Technology
This technology allows having
headlights with a simpler construction
and a more compact size compared
to those equipped with traditional or
Xenon light bulbs.
Other advantages are:
• a clearer light beam, with a cool
white tone that allows a better
perception of the contrasts thus
making the night vision more
efficient and less tiring;
• a longer duration equivalent at least
to that of the vehicle;
• a reduced current consumption.
These functions positively affect
some vehicle management economy
aspects by eliminating/reducing the
light bulb replacements and the fuel
consumption.
The picture shows the increased
brightness of the low beam of
standard halogen headlights (A)
compared to those Full-LED (B) in the
"motorway beam" mode.
