Lights and vision 1109

If you have to drive a right-hand drive vehicle in a left-hand drive country, or vice versa, the asymmet-ric dipped beam halogen headlights may dazzle oncoming traffic. Therefore, the headlights must be masked over if you are driving abroad.
Therefore you must apply stickers to certain parts of the headlighllenses if you are driving abroad. A qualified workshop can provide you with further in-formation. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles rec-ommends using a Volkswagen Commercial Vehi-cles dealership for this purpose.
m The use of the stickers on the headlights is L!J only permissible if the period of use is limited. Please contact a qualified workshop for a perma-nent alteration. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends using a Volkswagen Commercial Ve-hicles dealership for this purpose. Coming Home and Leaving Home functions (orientation lighting)
