Automatic main beam
headlights
Depending on the vehicle, this system
switches the main beam headlights on
and off automatically. It uses a camera
located behind the interior rear-view
mirror to detect vehicles that are being
followed and those coming in the oppo-
site direction.
The main beam headlights come on au-
tomatically if:
– exterior light is weak;
– no other vehicles or lighting are de-tected;
– the vehicle speed is above approxi- mately 25 mph (40 km/h).
If any of the above conditions are not
fulfilled, the system switches to dipped
beam headlights.
The “automatic main beam
headlights” system should
under no circumstances be
used to replace driver atten-
tion and responsibility with regard
to vehicle lighting and adapting to
light, visibility and traffic conditions.
The system may encounter difficul-
ties under certain conditions, inclu-
ding :
– extreme weather conditions (rain, snow, fog, etc.);
– obstruction in front of the wind- screen or camera;
– when a following or oncoming ve- hicle has weak or hidden lighting;
– incorrect settings for the front headlights;
– reflective systems;
– ...
