System limits
The Automatic High Beam Assistant cannot
replace the driver's personal judgment of when
to use the high beams. In situations that re-
quire this, therefore dim manually.
The system is not fully functional in the follow-
ing situations, and driver intervention may be
necessary:
▷
In very unfavorable weather conditions,
such as fog or heavy precipitation.
▷
When detecting poorly-lit road users such
as pedestrians, cyclists, horseback riders
and wagons; when driving close to train or
ship traffic; or at animal crossings.
▷
In tight curves, on hilltops or in depressions,
in crossing traffic or half-obscured oncom-
ing traffic on highways.
▷
In poorly-lit towns and cities or in the pres-
ence of highly reflective signs.
▷
When the windshield in front of the interior
mirror is fogged up, dirty or covered with
stickers, etc.

creased and provides better illumination of the
