Lighting107Adaptive forward lighting
The Adaptive forward lighting
functions are only available with Bi-
Xenon headlights. Light range, light
distribution and intensity of light are
variably triggered depending on the
light conditions, weather and road
type.
Playstreet lighting
Activated automatically at low speed
up to approx. 20 mph. The light beam is turned at an angle of -5°/3° to the
roadside.
Town lighting
Activated automatically at a speed up to approx. 30 mph and when streetlights are detected by the light sensor.
The light range is reduced by an
extended light distribution.
Country lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
range between approx. 30 and
72 mph. The beam of light and the
brightness is different between the
left and the right side.Motorway lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
above approx. 72 mph and minimal steering movements. It switches on
after a delay or directly when the vehicle is powerfully accelerated. The
light beam is longer and brighter.
Adverse weather lighting
Activated automatically up to a speed
of approx. 43 mph, when the rain
sensor recognises condensation or the wiper operates continuously. The
range, distribution and light intensity
is regulated variably depending on visibility.Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Control indicator f 3 89.
Corner lighting On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which
illuminates the road at an right angle
to the direction of travel. It is activated up to a speed of 25 mph.
