vehicle, and consequently switches the head-
lamp sf rom high bea mtol ow beam.
The system automatically adapts the low-beam
headlamp range depending on the distance to
the other vehicle. Once the system no longer
detects any other vehicles, it reactivates the
high-beam headlamps.
The system' so ptical sensor is located behind
the windshiel dn ear the overhea dc ontrol panel.
Important safety notes
G WARNING
Adaptive Highbeam Assist does not recognize
road users: R
who have no lights, e.g. pedestrians R
who have poor lighting, e.g. cyclists R
whos el ighting is blocked ,e .g. by ab arrier
On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam
Assist may fail to recognize other road users
that have lights, or may recognize them too
late. In this, or in similar situations, the auto-
matic high-beam headlamp sw il ln ot be deac-
tivated or wil lbea ctivated regardless. There is
ar isk of an accident.
Always carefully observe the traffic conditions
and switch off the high-beam headlamp si n
good time.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist cannot take into
account road ,w eather or traffic conditions.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid .Y ou are
responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting
to the prevailing light, visibility and traffic con-
ditions.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can be
restricted if there is: R
poor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or
snow R
dirt on the sensors or the sensors are
obscured Switching Adaptive Highbeam Assist
