when driving
- Turn the light switch to AUTO~ page 65, fig. 53.
The Adaptive Light is a dynamic cornering light. When the light is on,
it follows the curve of the road. It is dependant upon the vehicle
speed and the angle of the steering wheel. The curve is then better
illuminated. The system works when the vehicle is moving from
6 mph (10 km/) to 68 mph (110 km/h).
The cornering light will switch on automatically at a specific steering
wheel angle. It works up to an approximate speed of 44 mph
(70 km/h).
At approximately 72 mph (115 km/h) the expressway light switches
on, which better distributes the light and increases the light cone
range . The expressway light switches off at approximately 62 mph
(100 km/h). •
