Lighting and visibility
The system becomes operational when
the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).
When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the function is no longer operational.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the detection camera.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
► A "headlamp flash" pauses the function:
• if the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to main
beam,
Activation/Deactivation
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
• if the "AUTO" and "Main beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to
dipped beam.
To reactivate the system, flash the headlamps
again.
The state of the system stays in the memory
when switching off the ignition.
Operation
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the
traffic conditions do not allow the main beam
headlamps to be lit:
– The dipped beam headlamps
remain lit. These indicator lamps
come on on the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is very low and traffic
conditions permit:
Cornering lighting
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
– When visibility conditions are poor
(snowfall, heavy rain, etc.).
– If the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty, misted or obscured (for example, by a
sticker).
– If the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
– The main beam headlamps
come on automatically. These
indicator lamps come on on the instrument
panel.
The function is deactivated if the fog lamps are
switched on or the system detects dense fog.
When the fog lamps are switched off or the
vehicle leaves the area of dense fog, the function
is automatically reactivated.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
– Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
– Vehicles whose lighting is obscured (for
example, vehicles driving behind a safety
barrier on a motorway).
(Only on versions equipped with Full LED
technology headlamps)
This system makes use of the beam from a front
foglamp to illuminate the inside of a bend, when
the main or dipped beam headlamps are on and
the vehicle speed is below 25 mph (40 km/h)
(urban driving, winding road, junctions, parking
manoeuvres).
This indicator lamp goes out when the
function is deactivated.
– Vehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
