WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident despite Adap-
tive Highbeam Assist
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist does not react to:
R road users without lights, e.g. pedestrians
R road users with poor lighting, e.g. cyclists
R road users whose lighting is obstructed,
e.g. bya bar rier
On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam
Assist may failto recognise other road users
with their own lighting, or may recognise them
to o late.
In these, or in similar situations, the automatic
high beam will not be deactivated or will be activated despite
the presence of other road
users. #
Always obser vethero ad and tra1c con-
ditions carefully and switch o. the high
beam in good time. Ad
aptive Highbeam Assist cann ottake into
account road, weather or tra1c conditions.
De tection may be restric ted in thefo llowing
cases:
R in poor visibility, e.g. fog, heavy rain or snow
R ifth ere is dirt on the sensors or the sensors
are obscured
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are
re sponsible for adjusting theve hicle's lighting to
th e pr evailing light, visibility and tra1c conditions. Ad
aptive Highbeam Assist automatically switches
between thefo llowing types of light:
R Low beam
R High beam
At speeds greater than 30 km/h:
R If no other road users are de tected, the high
beam will switch on automaticall y.134 134
