Intelligent Light System
General notes
The Intelligent Light System is a system that
adjusts the headlamps automatically to suit
the prevailing driving and weather conditions.
It offers advanced functions for improved illu-
mination of the road surface, e.g. depending
on the vehicle speed or weather conditions.
The system includes the active light function,
cornering light function, motorway mode and
extended range foglamps. The system is only
active when it is dark.
You can activate or deactivate the "Intelligent
Light System" using the on-board computer
(
page 214).

Active light function
The active light function is a system that
moves the headlamps according to the steer-
ing movements of the front wheels. In this
way, relevant areas remain illuminated while
driving. This allows you to recognise pedes-
trians, cyclists and animals.
Active: when the lights are switched on

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. The corner-
ing light function can only be activated when
the dipped-beam headlamps are switched on.
Active:
if you are driving at speeds below 40 km/h
R
and switch on the turn signal or turn the
steering wheel
if you are driving at speeds between
R
40 km/h and 70 km/h and turn the steer-
ing wheel
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after
no more than three minutes.
Motorway mode
Motorway mode increases the range of the
beam.
