High beam flashPull the lever toward the steering wheel to position 1. The high beams come on until thelever is released.
Active high beams – AHB*AHB is a feature that uses a camera at theupper edge of the windshield to detect theheadlights of oncoming vehicles or the tail-lights of a vehicle directly ahead. When thishappens, the headlights will automaticallyswitch from high beams to low beams. Whenthe camera no longer detects the headlights/taillights of other vehicles, your headlights willswitch back to high beams after several sec-onds. To activate AHB:
• Turn the headlight control to the
position.
The feature will begin functioning if the engine has been running for at least 20 seconds andthe vehicle's speed is at least 12 mph(20 km/h).
Headlight switch in the AUTO position
Switch AHB on or off by pulling the left steer- ing wheel lever rearward (toward the steeringwheel) as far as possible and releasing it. IfAHB is switched off while the high beams areon, the headlights will change to low beams.

Tunnel detection (models with the rain sensor* only)
The rain sensor reacts to the change in light- ing conditions when, for example, the vehicleenters a tunnel and the tunnel detection fea-ture will then activate the low beam head-lights. The low beams will be switched offapprox. 20 seconds after the vehicle leavesthe tunnel. The rain sensor does not have to be activated for tunnel detection to function.
