High-beam Assistant The concept
When the low beams are activated, this system
automatically switches the high beams on and
off. The procedure is controlled by a camera on
the front of the interior rearview mirror. The as‐
sistant ensures that the high beams are acti‐
vated whenever the traffic situation allows. The
driver can intervene at any time and reel the
high beams on and off as usual.
Activating
The High-beam Assistant can be activated
when the low beams are activated.
1.Depending on the equipment, turn the light
switch into position
or .
2.Press button on the turn signal lever, arrow.
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up.
When the low beams are on, the lights are au‐
tomatically brightened or dimmed.
The system responds to light from oncoming
traffic and traffic driving ahead of you, and to
adequate illumination, e.g., in towns and cities.
The blue indicator lamp in the instru‐
ment cluster lights up when the system
switches on the high beams.

System limits Personal responsibility
The High-beam Assistant cannot serve as
a substitute for the driver's personal judgment
of when to use the high beams. Therefore,
manually reel off the high beams in situations
where required to avoid a safety risk. ◀
The system is not fully functional in situations
such as the following, and driver intervention
may be necessary:
▷In very unfavorable weather conditions,
such as fog or heavy precipitation.▷When detecting poorly-lit road users such
as pedestrians, cyclists, horseback riders
and wagons; when driving close to train or
ship traffic; and at animal crossings.▷In tight curves, on hilltops or in depressions,
in cross traffic or half-obscured oncoming
traffic on freeways.▷In poorly-lit towns and cities and in the
presence of highly reflective signs.▷At low speeds.Seite 90CONTROLSLights90

shortly before a collision the system supports
you with a braking intervention.
Under those circumstances it reacts to people
who are within the detection range of the sys‐
tem.
