tLight System
General notes The Intelligent Light System is
asystem that
adjusts the headlamps automatically to suit the
prevailing driving and weather conditions. It
offers advanced functions for improved illumi-
nation of the road surface, e.g. depending on the vehicle speed or weather conditions. The sys-
tem includes the active light function, cornering light function, motorway mode, extended range
foglamps and off-road lights. The system is only
active when it is dark.
You can activate or deactivate the "Intelligent
Light System" function using the on-board com- puter (Y page 247).
Active light function The active light function is
asystem that moves
the headlamps according to the steerin gmove-
mentsoft he front wheels. In this way, relevant
areas remain illuminated while you are driving.
This allows you to recognise pedestrians,
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
awide angle in the
direction you are turning, enabling better visi-
bility in tight bends, for example. It can only be
activated when the dipped-beam headlamps are
switched on.
Active:
R if you are driving at speeds below 40 km/h
and switch on the turn signal or turn the steer- ing wheel
R if you are driving at speeds between 40 km/h
and 70 km/ha nd turnthe steering wheel
The cornering light function may remain lit for a
shor ttime, but is automatically switched off
after no mor ethant hree minutes. Motorwa
