Active high beam
Active high beams is a function that uses camera sensors in the upper edge of thewindshield to detect the headlights ofapproaching vehicles or the taillights of thevehicle directly ahead. When either of theseis detected, the vehicle's headlights will auto-matically switch from high beams to lowbeams.
Active high beams is indicated by the symbol.
This function can be used in dark conditions when the vehicle's speed is approx. 20 km/h(approx. 12 mph) or higher. The function canalso detect street lighting. When the camerasensor no longer detects an approaching vehi-cle or a vehicle ahead, the headlights willreturn to high beams after a second or two.
Activating active high beamsActive high beams can be activated and deac-tivated by turning the lighting ring on the left- side steering wheel lever to position
.
The lighting ring will then return to
.
When active high beams are activated, a white
symbol will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel. When high beams are on, the symbol will be blue. If active high beams are deactivated when the high beams are on, the headlights will auto-matically switch to low beams.
Limitations for active high beamsThe camera sensor on which the function isbased has limitations.
If this symbol and the message
Active High Beam Temporarily
unavailable is displayed in the
instrument panel, switching
between high and low beams must be done manually. The
symbol will go out when
the message is displayed.
The same applies if this symbol along with the message
Windscreen sensor Sensor
blocked, see Owner's manual is
displayed.
Active high beams may be temporarily unavail- able in certain situations, e.g. heavy fog or rain. When active high beams become availa-ble again, or the windshield sensors are nolonger blocked, the message will disappear and the
symbol will be displayed.
WARNING
Automatic high beam is an aid in using the best possible light based on prevailing con-ditions. The driver is always responsible for man- ually switching between high and lowbeam when traffic situations or weatherconditions require this.

. The function is designed to
notify the driver of any hazardous road condi- tions ahead.
The function can notify the driver if another vehicle further down the road has activated itshazard warning flashers or detected slipperyroad conditions. You will also be notified ifyour own vehicle detects slippery road condi-tions. Connected Safety can assist the driver with the following:
Hazard warning flashers alert
Slippery road alerts
Connected Safety communication betweenvehicles only works for vehicles that are equip-ped with the function and have it activated.
Hazard warning flashers alertIf your vehicle's hazard warning flashers areactivated, information on this can be sent toother vehicles approaching your location. When your vehicleapproaches a vehicle with itshazard warning flashers on,this symbol will appear in theinstrument panel.
In vehicles equipped with a head-up display, the warning symbols for Connected Safetywill also be displayed there.
Slippery road alertsIf your own car detects reduced frictionbetween your tires and the road, informationon this can be sent to vehicles approachingyour own car's position.
As the vehicle approachesthe area affected, this symbolwill be displayed in the instru-ment panel to alert the driverof slippery road conditions.Drivers of other vehiclesreceiving information via
Connected Safety will receive similar notifica-tions as they approach the area.

Using engine braking instead of applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applying the brakes. On downgrades, it cansometimes be desirable to roll a bit faster andlet speed be reduced instead by engine brak-ing alone. The driver can temporarily disen-gage the Cruise Control braking function. To disengage CC:
–Press the accelerator pedal about halfway down and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen-
gage the automatic brake function and speed will only be reduced using theengine braking function.

cle. When there are no longer slower-moving vehicles ahead, the vehicle will return to theset speed. If the Curve Speed Assist (CSA)
* function is
activated, it may also affect the vehicle's speed. Adaptive Cruise Control is designed to: smoothly regulate speed. The driver must apply the brakes in situations requiringimmediate braking. For example, whenthere are great differences in speedbetween vehicles or if the vehicle aheadbrakes suddenly. Due to limitations in theradar sensor, braking may occur unexpect-edly or not at all.
follow a vehicle ahead in the same laneand maintain a time interval to that vehicleset by the driver. If the radar sensor doesnot detect a vehicle ahead, it will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. Thiswill also happen if the speed of the vehicleahead exceeds the set speed for your vehi-cle.
