AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF
THE XENON HEADLAMPS

On vehicles which are fi tted with xenon
headlamps, this system automatically
corrects the height of the light beam,
regardless of the load in the vehicle.
The driver is then guaranteed optimum
lighting without dazzling other road
users.
Cancelling:
-
"fl ash" the headlamps,
-
get out of the vehicle and lock it.
If your vehicle is fi tted
with a brightness
sensor, the side lights
and dipped beam
headlamps switch on
automatically if the
light is poor, or during operation of the
windscreen wipers. They switch off
as soon as the light becomes bright
enough or the windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime lights.
