Activation
Operation
Once the function is activated, the system
operates as follows:
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or if
the traffic conditions do not allow illumination
of the main beam headlamps:
Refer to the "Technology on board -
Vehicle configuration" section.
Flash the headlamps (going beyond the
point of resistance) to activate the function.
If the situation requires a change of
headlamp beam, the driver can take over at
any time.
Flashing the headlamps again pauses
the function and the system changes to
"automatic illumination of headlamps"
mode.
The function is deactivated automatically
below 9 mph (15 km/h).
If main beam is still needed, flash the
headlamps again; main beam will then
remain on until the vehicle reaches a speed
of 25 mph (40 km/h).
Above 25 mph (40 km/h), the function is
reactivated automatically (provided that the
headlamps have not been flashed again in
the meantime, to change to dipped beam).
Deactivation
Turn the lighting control stalk ring to the
" Dipped beam " position.
The system may suffer interference or
not work correctly:
- Under conditions of poor visibility
(falling snow, heavy rain or dense
fog, ...),
- If the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a sticker, ...) in front
of the camera,
- If the vehicle is facing highly
reflective signs.
The system is not able to detect:
- Road users that do not have their
own lighting, such as pedestrians,
- Vehicles whose lighting is
obscured, such as when running
behind a safety barrier on a
motorway, for example,
- Vehicles at the top or bottom of a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads. - Dipped beam is maintained,
this indicator lamp comes on
in the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is very low and the
traffic conditions permit:
- Main beam comes on
automatically: these
indicator lamps come
on in the instrument
panel.
Turn the lighting control stalk
ring to this position.
Activate the function with the MODE
button; in the "Automatic headlamp
dipping" menu, select "ON".
