Adaptive forward lighting
The Adaptive forward lighting
functions are only available with Bi-
Xenon headlights. Light range, light
distribution and intensity of light are
variably triggered depending on the
light conditions, weather and road
type.
With the light switch in position
AUTO all lighting functions are
available.
The following functions are available
also with light switch in position 9:
■ Dynamic curve lighting
■ Corner lighting
■ Reversing function
■ Dynamic automatic headlight levelling

126Lighting
Playstreet lightingActivated automatically at low speed
up to approx. 30 km/h. The light beam is turned at an angle of 8° to the
roadside.
Town lighting Activated automatically at a speed
range between approx. 40 and
55 km/h and when street lights are
detected by the light sensor. The light
range is reduced by an extended light
distribution.
Country lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
range between approx. 55 and
115 km/h. The beam of light and the
brightness is different between the
left and the right side.
Motorway lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
above approx. 115 km/h and minimal
steering movements. It switches on
after a delay or immediately when the
vehicle is powerfully accelerated. The light beam is longer and brighter.Adverse weather lighting
Activated automatically up to a speed of approx. 70 km/h, when the rain
sensor recognizes condensation or
the wiper operates continuously. The
range, distribution and light intensity
is regulated variably depending on visibility.
Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Control indicator f 3 106.
Corner lighting
On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which illuminates the road at a right angle to
the direction of travel. It is activated
up to a speed of 40 km/h.
Control indicator f 3 106.
Reversing function If the headlights are on and reverse
gear is engaged, both corner lights
are switched on. They remain

High Beam AssistThis feature allows the high beam to
function as the main driving light at
night and when vehicle speed is
faster than 40 km/h.
It switches automatically to low beam
when:
■ the camera in the windscreen detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles
■ the vehicle speed is slower than 20 km/h
■ it is foggy or snowy
■ driving in urban areas
If there are no restrictions detected,
the system switches back to high
beam.Activation
