sistant ensures that the high beams are acti‐
vated whenever the traffic situation allows. The
driver can intervene at any time and switch the
high beams on and off as usual. In the low
speed range, the high beams are not switched
on by the system.

switch into position
or .
2.Press button on the turn signal lever, arrow.

ually switch off the high beams in situations
where required to avoid a safety risk.
The system is not fully functional in situations such as the following, and driver intervention
may be necessary:
▷In very unfavorable weather conditions,
such as fog or heavy precipitation.▷When detecting poorly-lit road users such
as pedestrians, cyclists, horseback riders
and wagons; when driving close to train or
ship traffic; and at animal crossings.▷In tight curves, on hilltops or in depressions,
in cross traffic or half-obscured oncoming
traffic on freeways.▷In poorly-lit towns and cities and in the
presence of highly reflective signs.▷When the windshield behind the interior
rearview mirror is fogged over, dirty or cov‐
ered with stickers, etc.
