Turn signal
Move the lever up or down to signal the turning
direction. When the turn is completed, the turn
signal cancels automatically.
Lane change signal
Move the lever up or down until the turn signal
begins to flash, but the lever does not latch, to
signal a lane change. Hold the lever until the
lane change is completed. Move the lever up or
down until the turn signal begins to flash, but
the lever does not latch, and release the lever.
The turn signal will automatically flash threetimes. Choose the appropriate method to signal
a lane change based on road and traffic condi-
tions.
High beam headlights
To switch on the high beam headlights:
•Turn the ignition switch to the ON position or
start the engine.
•Turn the light switch toor
.
•Press the combination switch beyond the
pressure point in the direction of arrow
3.
In the position, the high beam head-
lights are only switched on when it is dark
and the engine is running.
The blue
indicator light in the combi-
nation meter lights up when the high beam
headlights are switched on.
To switch off the high beam headlights:
•Move the combination switch back to its
normal position. The blueindicator
light in the combination meter goes out.
NOTE
Vehicles with High beam Assist: when High
beam Assist is active, it controls activation and
deactivation of the high beam headlights (see
 High beam assist (LED headlight only) later in
this section)
ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM
(LED HEADLIGHT ONLY) (IF EQUIPPED)
The Adaptive Front Lighting System is a system
that adjusts the headlights automatically to suit
the prevailing driving and weather conditions. It
offers advanced functions for improved illumi-
nation of the road surface, e.g. depending on
the vehicle speed or weather conditions. The
system includes the active light function, cor-
nering light function and freeway mode. The
system is only active when it is dark.
You can activate or deactivate the “Adaptive
Front Lighting System” function using the ve-
hicle information display (see Switching the
Adaptive Front Lighting System on/off earlier in
this section)

HIGH BEAM ASSIST (LED HEADLIGHT
ONLY)
You can use this function to set the headlights
to change between low beam and high beam
automatically. The system recognizes vehicles
with their lights on, either approaching from the
opposite direction or traveling in front of your
vehicle, and consequently switches the head-
lights from high beam to low beam.
The system automatically adapts the low beam
headlight range depending on the distance to
the other vehicle. Once the system no longer
detects any other vehicles, it switches on the
high beam headlights again.
The system’s optical sensor is located behind
the windshield near the overhead control panel.
WARNING
•The high beam assist system is a conve-
nience but is not a substitute for safe driv-
ing operation. The driver should remain
alert at all times, ensure safe driving prac-
tices and switch the high beams and low
beam manually when necessary.
•The high beam or low beam may not switch
automatically under the following condi-
tions. Switch the high beam and low beam
manually.– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.).
– When a light source similar to a head-
light or tail light is in the vicinity of the
vehicle.
– When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are turned
off, when the color of the light is affected
due to foreign materials on the lights, or
when the light beam is out of position.
– When there is a sudden, continuous
change in brightness.
– When driving on a road that passes over
rolling hills, or a road that has level dif-
ferences.
– When driving on a road with many
curves. –
When a sign or mirror-like surface is re-
flecting intense light towards the front of
the vehicle.
– When the container, etc. being towed by
a leading vehicle is reflecting intense
light.
– When a headlight on your vehicle is dam-
aged or dirty.
– When the vehicle is leaning at an angle
due to a punctured tire, being towed, etc.
•The timing of switching the low beam and
high beam may change under the following
situations.
– The brightness of the headlights of the
oncoming vehicle or leading vehicle.
– The movement and direction of the on-
coming vehicle and the leading vehicle.
– When only one light on the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle is illumi-
nated.
– When the oncoming vehicle or the lead-
ing vehicle is a two-wheeled vehicle.
– Road conditions (incline, curve, the road
surface, etc.).
– The number of passengers and the
amount of luggage.
•High beam Assist does not recognize road
users:
– Who have no lights, e.g. pedestrians.
NDS595
Instruments and controls2-67

–Who have low intensity lighting, e. g.
cyclists.
– Whose lighting is blocked, e.g. by a bar-
rier.
•In very rare cases, High beam Assist recog-
nizes road users too late or not at all. In this,
or in similar situations, the automatic high
beam headlights will not be deactivated or
activated regardless. There is a risk of an
accident.
•Always carefully observe the traffic condi-
tions and switch off the high beam head-
lights in good time.
CAUTION
High beam Assist cannot compensate for road
and weather circumstances while driving. The
system saves the driver from having to operate
the switch. The driver always remains respon-
sible for choosing the correct light setting.
Specific situations in which to operate the
headlight switch manually:
•In heavy rain, snowy conditions. (general
poor visibility and bad weather conditions).
•When the vehicle sensors are dirty, covered
or broken.
Switching High Beam Assist on/off
To switch on:
Turn the light switch to and press the
combination switch beyond the pressure point
in the direction of arrow
3. Theindicator
light in the vehicle information display lights up
when it is dark and the light sensor switches on
the low-beam headlights.
If you are driving at speeds above approxi-
mately 28 MPH (45 km/h) the headlight range is
set automatically depending on the distance
between the vehicle and other road users.
If you are driving at speeds above approxi-
mately 34 MPH (55 km/h) and no other road
users are detected, the high beam headlights
are switched on automatically. The
indi- cator light in the combination meter also lights
up.
If you are driving at speeds below approxi-
mately 28 MPH (45 km/h) or other road users
are detected or the roads are adequately lit The
high beam headlights are switched off auto-
matically. The
indicator light in the com-
bination meter goes out. Theindicator
light in the vehicle information display remains
lit.
To deactivate
:
Move the combination switch back to its normal
position Theindicator light in the vehicle
information display goes out.
HEADLIGHTS MISTED UP ON THE
INSIDE
Certain climatic and physical conditions may
cause moisture to form in the headlight. This
moisture does not affect the functionality of the
headlight.
