Ad aptive Highbeam Assist
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist does not recog‐

R Road users without lights, e.g. pedes‐
trians
R Road users with poor lighting, e.g.
cyclists
R Road users whose lighting is obstructed,
e.g. bya bar rier
On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam
Assist may failto recognize other road users
with their own lighting, or may recognize
th em too late. In
these or similar situations, the automatic
high beam is not deactivated or is activated
despite the presence of other road users. #
Alw ays obser vethe tra ffic carefully and
switch off the high beam in good time. Ad
aptive Highbeam Assist cannot take into

De tection may be restricted in thefo llowing
cases:
R in poor visibilit y,e.g. fog, heavy rain or snow
R ifth ere is dirt on the sensors or the sensors

lowing situations is de tected:
R Turning off at intersections
R Driving on slowing-down lanes
R Driving on lanes adjacent toslowing-down
