the system can no longer prevent other road users from being dazzled, main beam is switched off completely. Dynamic Light Assist
normally also recognises illuminated areas such as towns and deactivates main beam while driving through them.
Within the limits of the system, main beam is automatically switched on or off depending on the surroundings and traffic conditions
and on the driving speed →
.
Dynamic Light Assist can be activated and deactivated in the vehicle settings in the Infotainment system (→ Vehicle settings menu).
Switching on Dynamic Light Assist
1. Switch on the ignition.
2. Switch on automatic lighting control
(→ Dipped beam).
3. Tap the lever forward from the basic position → Fig. 1 A .
When Dynamic Light Assist is activated, the
indicator lamp lights up white in the instrument cluster display. When Dynamic Light
Assist is switched on, the
indicator lamp for the main beam lights up blue in the instrument cluster display.
Switching off Dynamic Light Assist
1. Switch off automatic lighting control
(→ Dipped beam).
if Dynamic Light Assist is switched on and active, pull the lever back → Fig. 1 B .
if Dynamic Light Assist is switched on and not active, tap the lever forward → Fig. 1 A . Manual main beam is now switched
on. To switch off the manual main beam again, pull back the lever.
System limits
The main beam must be manually switched off under the following conditions, as it is not switched off by Dynamic Light Assist in time
or not at all:
—In badly lit towns that the system cannot recognise as towns.
—In poorly lit streets where there are highly reflective signs.
—Other road users with insufficient lighting facilities, such as pedestrians, cyclists.
—In the case of crossing traffic at right-angled junctions.
—In tight bends, on steep hill crests or in dips in the road or when oncoming traffic is half-hidden.
—With oncoming traffic on streets with a central barrier where the driver can see clearly over the central barrier e.g. truck drivers.
—In fog, snow or heavy rain.
—In conditions where dust or sand has been blown up.
—Damage to the windscreen in the camera’s field of vision.
—If the camera window is covered by condensation, dirt, a sticker, snow or ice.
—If the camera is switched off automatically due to a high ambient temperature or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. When the
camera is available again, Dynamic Light Assist will also be available once more.
—If the camera is faulty or the power supply is interrupted.
WARNING
Dynamic Light Assist may not be able to recognise all driving situations correctly and may not work properly in certain situations.
Dynamic Light Assist supports the driver. The driver is responsible for the vehicle lighting being switched on correctly. Improperly
switching on the main beam can distract and dazzle other road users. This can cause accidents and serious or fatal injuries.
● Always check the lighting yourself and adjust it to suit the light, visibility and traffic conditions.
● Switch off the main beam manually if it may cause dazzle to other road users.
WARNING
If the camera window is dirty, covered or damaged, the function of Dynamic Light Assist may be impaired. This also applies if changes
are made to the vehicle’s lighting system, for example if additional headlights are fitted. This can cause accidents and serious or fatal
