Active high beams (AHB)*
AHB uses a camera at the upper edge of the windshield to detect the headlights of oncom-ing vehicles or the taillights of a vehicledirectly ahead. When this happens, the head-lights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams. When the camera nolonger detects the headlights/taillights ofother vehicles, your headlights will switchback to high beams after several seconds. To activate AHB:
• Turn the headlight control to the
position.
The feature will begin functioning if the engine has been running for at least 20 seconds andthe vehicle's speed is at least 12 mph(20 km/h).
Headlight switch in the AUTO position Switch AHB on or off by pulling the left steer- ing wheel lever rearward (toward the steeringwheel) as far as possible and releasing it. IfAHB is switched off while the high beams areon, the headlights will change to low beams.
Models with an analog instrument panel
When AHB is activated, the symbol will
illuminate in the instrument panel. The high beam indicator (
) in the instrument panel
will also illuminate when the high beams are on.
Models with a digital instrument panel
When AHB is activated, will illuminate
as a white symbol in the instrument panel.
When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the camera free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attachanything on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If Active high beam Temporary
unavailable Switch manually is displayed in
the instrument panel, switching between high and low beams will have to be done man-ually. However, the light switch can remain in the
position. The same applies if
Windscreen Sensors blocked is displayed
and the
symbol is displayed. The symbol will go out when these messages are displayed. AHB may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When AHB becomes activeagain or if the sensors in the windshield areno longer obscured, the messages will disap- pear and the
symbol will illuminate.
CAUTION
In the following situations, it may be nec- essary to switch between high and lowbeams manually:
• In heavy fog or rain
• In blowing snow or slush
• In bright moonlight

Spin Control (SC)The SC function is designed to help prevent the drive wheels from spinning while the vehi-cle is accelerating.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)This function helps maintain directional stabil- ity, for example when cornering, by brakingone or more of the wheels if the vehicleshows a tendency to skid or slide laterally.
Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)The TSA helps stabilize a vehicle that is tow- ing a trailer when the vehicle and trailer havebegun to sway. See Trailer Stability Assist(TSA) (p. 268) for more information. This system is automatically deactivated if the driver selects Sport mode.

Stability system – operation
Operation
Sport modeThe stability system is always activated and cannot be switched off.
However, the driver canselect Sport mode, which
offers more active drivingcharacteristics. Sport mode can be selected
in the MY CAR menus, see
My Car – introduction (p. 70).
In Sport mode, the engine management sys-
tem monitors movement of the accelerator pedal and steering wheel for sportier drivingby allowing more lateral movement of the rearwheels before ESC is activated. Under certain circumstances, such as when driving with snow chains, or driving in deepsnow or loose sand, it may be advisable totemporarily use Sport mode for maximum
tractive force. If the driver releases pressure on the acceler- ator pedal, ETC will also activate to help sta-bilize the vehicle. To switch to Sport mode:
Sport mode remains active until the driver
switches it off in the menu or until the engine is switched off. ETC will return to normalmode when the engine is restarted.

Road Sign Information (RSI) – limitations
RSI's camera has the same limitations as the human eye. See The camera’s limitations(p. 204) for more information about the cam-era's limitations. Signs that indirectly indicate the speed limit (such as a sign with a town's name and thepermitted speed limit) will not be registeredby RSI. Other factors that may interfere with RSI include:
• Faded signs
• Signs located in a curve
• Twisted or damaged signs
• Obstructed signs
• Signs that are partially covered by snow, ice, etc.
