WARNING
This system help to save energy - it cannot determine in all situations when daylight istoo weak or sufficiently strong, e.g. in mistand rain. The driver is always responsible for ensur- ing that the car is driven with its lights in acorrect state and in accordance with appli-cable traffic regulations.
Tunnel detection*
In markets without automatic dipped beam, tunnel detection activates dipped beam whendriving into a tunnel. Dipped beam is deacti-vated approx. 20 seconds after the car hasbeen driven out of the tunnel. The tunnel detection function is available in cars with rain sensor*. The sensor detects theentrance to a tunnel and resets the lightingfrom daytime running lights to dipped beam.Approx. 20 seconds after the car has left thetunnel, the lighting returns to daytime runninglights. If the car is driven into another tunnelwithin this time period then dipped beam iskept switched on. This avoids repeatedchanges to the car's light settings. Note that the headlamp control's knob must remain in
position for tunnel detection
to work.

WARNING
AHB is an aid for using optimum light composition when conditions are favoura-ble. The driver always bears responsibility for manually switching between main anddipped beam when traffic situations orweather conditions so require.
IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching between main and dipped beam may berequired:
• In heavy rain or dense fog
• In freezing rain
• In snow flurries or slush
• In moonlight
• When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
• When the traffic ahead has weak light-ing
• If there are pedestrians on or besidethe road
• If there are highly reflective objectssuch as signs in the vicinity of the road
• When the lighting from oncoming traf-fic is obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
• When there is traffic on connectingroads
• On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
• In sharp bends.
