Fault
it may not be possible to switch off the main beam quickly enough or at all using main beam assist due to the following:

• When encountering other road users with insuf-ficient lighting, such as pedestrians or cydists.
• In tight bends, brows of hills or depressions in the land or half-hidden oncoming traffic.
• With oncoming traffic on streets with a central barrier where the driver can see clearly over the central barrier e. . truck drivers. g
• If the camera is broken or the power supply is interrupted.
• In fog, snow or heavy rain.
• In dusty or sandy areas.
• Damage to the windscreen in the camera's vi-sion field.
• If the viewing field of the camera is misted up, dirty, covered by a sticker, snow or ice.
A WARNING
Do not let the extra convenience afforded by main beam control tempt you into taking any risks when driving-this can cause acci-dents. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
A WARNING (Continued)
• Always check the lights yourself and ad-just them to the prevailing conditions for lights, vision and road traffic.
• The main beam control may not be able to recognise all driving situations correctly and may not work properly in certain situations.
• If the camera's field of view is dirty, cov-ered or damaged, the function of the main beam assist may be impaired. This also ap-plies If changes are made to the vehicle's lighting system, for example if additional headlights are fitted.

• Regularly clean the camera's field of view, and keep it free from snow and ice.
