cording to the brightness of the ambient light
(exception: poor visibility due to weather con-
ditions such as fog, snow or spray):
•Ignition switch in ACC or ON position: the
side lights are switched on or off auto-
matically depending on the brightness of
the ambient light.

ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING
SYSTEM (LED HEADLIGHT
ONLY) (IF EQUIPPED)
The Adaptive Front Lighting System is a sys-
tem that adjusts the headlights automatically
to suit the prevailing driving and weather
conditions. It offers advanced functions for
improved illumination of the road surface,
e.g. depending on the vehicle speed or
weather conditions. The system includes the
active light function, cornering 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
vehicle information display (see "Switching
the Adaptive Front Lighting System on/off"
earlier in this section)
NIC2618
Instruments and controls2-67

Active light function
The active light function is a system that
moves the headlights according to the steer-
ing movements of the front wheels. In this
way relevant areas remain illuminated while
you are driving. This helps you to recognize
pedestrians, cyclists and animals. It is active
when the lights are switched on.
Cornering light function
The cornering light function improves the il-
lumination of the road over a wide angle in
the direction you are turning, enabling better
visibility in tight bends, for example. It can
only be activated when the low-beam head-
lights are switched on. It is active if you are
driving at speeds below 25 MPH (40 km/h)
and switch on the turn signal or turn the
steering wheel.
The cornering light function may remain lit for
a short time, but is automatically switched off
after no longer than three minutes.
Freeway mode
Freeway mode adjusts the light beam to re-
duce the amount of light that shines on the
opposite lane of the freeway, and oncoming
traffic.
Freeway mode is active if you are driving at a
speed above 68 MPH (110 km/h) and do not
make any large steering movements for at
least 3300 ft (1000 m) or if you are driving at
a speed above 81 MPH (130 km/h).
It is not active if you are driving at speeds
below 50 MPH (80 km/h) following activa-
tion.

HIGH BEAM ASSIST (LED
HEADLIGHT ONLY)
You can use this function to set the head-
lights to change between low beam and high
beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in
front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlights from high beam to
low beam.
The system automatically adapts the low
beam headlight range depending on the dis-
tance 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
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driv-
ing practices and switch the high beams
and low beam manually when necessary.
•The high beam or low beam may not
switch automatically under the follow-
ing conditions. 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 differences.
–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 in-
tense 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 ve-
hicle.
–The movement and direction of the
oncoming vehicle and the leading ve-
hicle.
–When only one light on the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle is illumi-
nated.
–When the oncoming vehicle or the
leading vehicle is a two-wheeled ve-
hicle.
–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.
–Who have low intensity lighting, e. g.
cyclists.
–Whose lighting is blocked, e.g. by a
barrier.
•In very rare cases, High beam Assist rec-
ognizes road users too late or not at all.
In this, or in similar situations, the auto-
matic high beam headlights will not be
deactivated or activated regardless.
There is a risk of an accident.
•Always carefully observe the traffic
conditions and switch off the high beam
headlights 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 responsible for choosing
the correct light setting.
Specific situations in which to operate the
headlight switch manually:
•In heavy rain, snowy conditions. (gen-
eral poor visibility and bad weather con-
ditions).
•When the vehicle sensors are dirty, cov-
ered 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 dis-
play 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.
