WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident despite Adap-
tive Highbeam Assist Plus
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist Plus 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 Plus may failto recognise other road
users with their own lighting, or may recognise
th em too 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 Plus 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 Plus is only an aid. Yo u
are responsible for adjusting theve hicle's lighting
to the pr evailing light, visibility and tra1c condi-
tions. Light and sight

Ad
aptive Highbeam Assist Plus automatically
switches between thefo llowing types of light:
R Low beam
R Partial high beam
R High beam
Pa rtial high beam uses the high beam toshine
past other road users rather than dazzling them. The
vehicle in front will be illuminated bythe low
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.
R Ifot her road users are de tected, the partial
high beam will switch on automaticall y.
At speeds below 25 km/h or when there is su1-
cient street lighting:
R The partial high beam will switch o. automati-
cally.
R The high beam will switch o. automaticall y.
At speeds greater than appr oximately 50 km/h:
R The headlamp range of the low beam is regu-
lated automatically based on the distance to
ot her road users.
