Automatic headlight activation
During poor lighting conditions the
headlights are switched on.
Additionally, headlights are switched
on if the windscreen wipers have
been activated for several wipes.High beam
To change between low and high
beam, pull lever until a click is felt.
High beam assist This feature allows high beam to
function as the main driving light at
night and when vehicle speed is
faster than 45 km/h.
It switches to low beam when:
● The camera in the windscreen detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles.
● It is foggy or snowy.
● Driving in urban areas.
If there are no restrictions detected,
the system switches back to high
beam.
Activation
Turn the outer light switch to AUTO
then pull the turn signal lever to activate high beam assist.
The control indicator í illuminates
continuously in the instrument cluster when the assist is activated, while the
blue control indicator 7 3 102
illuminates when high beam is on.
