Principle
Interruption of the journey with activated Au-
tomatic High Beam Assistant: the Automatic
High Beam Assistant remains activated when
continuing the journey.
The Automatic High Beam Assistant detects
other road users early on and automatically
switches the high-beam headlights on or off
depending on the traffic situation.
The Automatic High Beam Assistant is deacti-
vated when manually switching the high-beam
headlights on and off.
General information
The Automatic High Beam Assistant ensures
that the high-beam headlights are switched
on, whenever the traffic situation allows. In the
low speed range, the high-beam headlights
are not switched on by the system.
The system responds to light from oncoming
traffic and traffic driving ahead of you, and to
ambient lighting, for instance in towns and cit-
ies.
The high-beam headlights can be switched on
and off manually at any time.
To reactivate the Automatic High Beam Assis-
tant, press the turn signal lever up, arrow 1.
