nises vehicles with their lights on, either
approaching from the opposite direction or
travelling in frontofy

quently switches the headlamps from main
beam to dipped beam.

beam headlamp range depending on the dis-

no longer detect sany other vehicles, it acti-
vates the main-beam headlamps again.
The optical sensor for the system is behind
