Active high beam
Active high beams is a function that uses cam- era sensors in the upper edge of the windshieldto detect the headlights of approaching vehiclesor the taillights of the vehicle directly ahead.When either of these is detected, the vehicle'sheadlights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams.
Active high beam is enabled by moving the lighting ring on the steering wheel lever to
.
The function can also detect street lighting. When the camera sensor no longer detects anapproaching vehicle or a vehicle ahead, the head-lights will return to high beams. This function can be used in dark conditionswhen the vehicle's speed is approx. 20 km/h(approx. 12 mph) or higher. If active high beams are deactivated when the high beams are on, the headlights will automati-cally switch to low beams. When active high beams are activated, a white
symbol will be displayed in the instrument
panel. When high beams are on, the symbol will be blue. For LED headlights, this applies even if the highbeams are partially dimmed, i.e. if the headlightsare illuminated with slightly more than low beams.
Vehicles with LED3 headlights *
If the active high beams are equipped with the auto on/off function 4
, the headlights will return to
high beams a second or so after the camera sen- sor no longer detects the headlights of approach-ing vehicles or the taillights of a vehicle ahead.
Limitations for active high beams
The camera sensor on which the function is based has limitations. If this symbol and the message
Active
High Beam Temporarily
unavailable is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, switching between high
and low beams must be done manually. The light- ing ring on the steering wheel lever can remain in the
position. 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 unavailable in certain situations, e.g. heavy fog or rain. Whenactive high beams become available again, or thewindshield sensors are no longer 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 condi-tions. The driver is always responsible for manually switching between high and low beam whentraffic situations or weather conditions requirethis.
