WARNING Risk of accident despite
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist does not recognize
th efo llowing road users:
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. #
Always obser vethe tra ffic carefully and
switch off the high beam in good time. The
Adaptive Highbeam Assist automatically
swit ches between thefo llowing settings:
R Low beam
R High beam
The sy stem de tects that vehicle lights are
approaching in the opposite direction or driving

R If no other road users are de tected, the high
beam switches on automaticall y.
At speeds less than 16 mp h (25 km/h) or if there
is suf ficient road lighting, a change is made to
th efo llowing setting:
R The high beam automatically switches off.
Sy stem limitations
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist cannot take thero ad,
we ather or traf fic conditions into consideration.
The de tection of obs tacles can be restricted if:
R Visibility is impaired, e.g. in fog, heavy rain or

WARNING Risk of bu rns from hot com‐
ponent parts whilst replacing a bulb
Bulbs, lamps and plug connectors can
become very hot during operation.
When replacing a bulb, you could burn your‐
self on these component parts. #
Allow the component parts tocool
down before replacing the bulbs. When
you are replacing the bulb, obser vethefo l‐
lowing:
R Do not use any bulb that has been dropped or
has scratches on its glass sur face. Otherwise,
th e bulb may explode.
R The bulb may explode if it is hot or if you
to uch, drop or sc ratch it.
R Stains on theglass sur face reduce the
service life of the bulb. Do not touch theglass
sur face wi thyour bare hands. If necessar y,
clean theglass sur face wi thalcohol or spirits
in a cold state and wipe it down with a lint-
free clo th.
R Protect bulbs from humidity and do not bring
th em into contact with liquids.
Alw ays ensure the bulbs are firm ly secu red.
If yo ur vehicle is equipped with LED lamps, you
can check this as follo ws :th e light cone will mo ve
