When emerging from tunnels in daylight, low-
beam headlights are not switched off immedi‐
ately, but only after approximately 2 minutes.

traffic and traffic driving ahead of you, and to
adequate lighting, for example in built-up
areas.
The blue indicator light in the instru‐
ment cluster illuminates if the high
beam is switched on by the system.
Depending on the version of the system instal‐
led in the vehicle, the high-beam lights may
not be switched off for oncoming vehicles, but
only the areas which dazzle the oncoming ve‐
hicles are faded out. In this case, the blue indi‐
cator light continues to illuminate.

lights. Thus, dip manually in situations requir‐
ing such.
In the following situations, the system will not
operate or its operation will be impaired and
your intervention may be required:
▷During extremely unfavourable weather
conditions such as fog or heavy precipita‐
tion.▷When detecting poorly-lit road users such
as pedestrians, cyclists or horseback riders
or carts, and when trains or ships are close
to the road, or when game are passing
across the road.▷On narrow bends, steep uphill or downhill
gradients, at traffic junctions or if your view
of oncoming vehicles on a motorway is ob‐
structed.▷In poorly-lit towns and where there are very
reflective signs.Seite 101LightsControls101
