Active high beams is indicated by the symbol.
This function can be used in dark conditionswhen the vehicle's speed is approx. 20 km/h(approx. 12 mph) or higher. The function can alsodetect street lighting. When the camera sensorno longer detects an approaching vehicle or avehicle ahead, the headlights will return to highbeams after a second or two.

The camera sensor on which the function isbased has limitations.
If this symbol and the message ActiveHigh Beam Temporarilyunavailable is displayed in the instru-ment panel, switching between highand low beams must be done manually. The
symbol will go out when the message isdisplayed.
The same applies if this symbol alongwith the message Windscreensensor Sensor blocked, seeOwner's manual is displayed.
