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
reflecting 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
damaged 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.

programing procedure for the corresponding
button on the rear-view mirror. When doing
so, vary the distance between the hand held
transmitter
5and the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between the hand
held transmitter
5and the integrated ga-
rage door opener depends on the garage
door drive system. Several attempts might
be necessary. You should test every position
for at least 25 seconds before trying another
position.
Synchronizing the rolling code
If the garage door system uses a rolling code,
you will also have to synchronize the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programing button on the
door drive control panel. The programing buttonmay be positioned at different locations de-
pending on the manufacturer. It is usually lo-
cated on the door drive unit on the garage
ceiling.
Familiarize yourself with the garage door drive
operating instructions before carrying out the
following steps.
Your vehicle must be within reach of the garage
door or gate opener drive. Make sure that
neither your vehicle nor any persons/ objects
are present within the sweep of the door or
gate.
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
2. Get out of the vehicle.
3. Press the programing button on the door
drive unit.
Usually, you now have 30 seconds to initiate
the next step.
4. Get into the vehicle.
5. Press previously programed button
2,3or4on the HomeLink® until the door
closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then com-
plete.
