Audi adaptive light
Applies to: vehicles with adaptive light
With the adaptive light feature, you have better
vision in the dark because the Lights are control­
led dynamically to match the vehicle speed and
road conditions, e.g. on motorways or country

roads,
at intersections or through corners. The
adaptive light is activated only when the Light
switch is set to AUTO and the all-weather Lights*
are switched off.
WARNING
- The automatic headlights are only intended
to assist the driver. The driver must always
ensure that the headlights are used when

required,
and may have to switch them on
manually when the light conditions or
visi­

bility are poor. For example, the light
sen­

sors are not able to detect fog. Therefore,
you should always switch on the dipped
headlights
|0
in these conditions and when
driving after dark.
- To avoid dazzling the traffic behind you, the
rear fog light should only be used in accord­
ance with statutory regulations.
- If the vehicle battery has been losing charge
for
a
while, the side lights or parking lights
may be switched off automatically. Always
park your car in a safe and suitably lit place
according to the applicable regulations.
