Visibility, mirrors and exterior lights -> Operating the driving lights for Your Volvo EX30 4 Door First Generation (2025-2026)

Note  
Exterior lighting may temporarily contain water from condensation. This is normal and all exterior lights are designed to  
withstand this. Condensation is normally vented out of the light housing after a period of time.  
9.1.1. Driving lights  
Driving lights mix automatic behaviours and direct controls which allow you to adapt to any situation or  
visibility conditions.  
Important  
The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the car is driven while using a lights mode that is suitable for the  
current driving conditions and local traffic regulations.  
Primary lighting  
You can choose between several different primary lighting modes in the display. Your selection sets a standard lighting  
behaviour.  
The automatic lights mode[1] allows your car to automatically detect and calculate which lighting mode is most suitable for the driving and environmental lighting  
conditions.  
You can manually select the passing beam to keep the front lights dipped.  
The position lights are points of illumination around the car that make your car more visible to other road users.  
Off deactivates all primary lighting modes.[2]  
Additional lights  
The rear fog light warns traffic behind you of your presence in poor light conditions. It is manually activated in the display.  
You can run tests from the display to check the lights on a connected trailer.

When the passing beam is manually selected in the centre display:  
Push the left-hand stalk to turn the manual high beam on.

A short pull of the stalk activates the high beam flash.  
The lights settings will reset to their default values between drives.

Make sure that the car cameras are well-maintained and kept clean. If the cameras’ views are obscured by dirt, they will  
not be able to obtain enough information to properly direct the cars lighting responses.

9.1.1.2. High beam  
The high beam is important for your driving visibility. There are different states you can use to suit your  
needs.  
Important  
Remember that your ability to see the road properly in low lighting conditions is important not just for your own safety,  
but for other road users and pedestrians too.  
The high beam is more powerful and has a longer reach of illumination than the passing beam. To use the high beam, you must  
first activate the automatic lights mode or passing beam.  
When the automatic high beam is active, the car automatically reacts to oncoming traffic to avoid dazzling other road users.  
Note  
The automatic high beam only activates at speeds over approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) and in low light.  
Use the left-hand steering wheel stalk to switch between the different high beam settings. There are symbols in the display that  
show which high beam setting is currently active. These include:  
The manual high beam is active.  
The automatic high beam is enabled.  
The automatic high beam is active.  
Important  
Make sure that the car cameras are well-maintained and kept clean. If the cameras’ views are obscured by dirt, they will  
not be able to obtain enough information to properly direct the cars lighting responses.  
9.1.1.3. Passing beam  
The passing beam reduces the risk of dazzling other road users.  
The passing beam is part of the automatic lights mode. However, you can manually select the passing beam in the display.  
9.1.1.3.1. Activating the passing beam
