Special
windscreen
The
windscreen
is
an
integral
part
of
the
system. The
shape
of
the
windscreen
enables

sharpimage
to
be
projected.
A
film
in
the
windscreen
prevents
the
projection
of
double
images.
Therefore
if
the
special
windscreen
needs
to
be replaced,
it
is
strongly
recommended
that
this
be carried
out
by
a
Service
Partner
of
the
manufacjturer
or
another
qualified
Service
Partner
or
a
specialist
workshop.

is
automatically
adapted
to
the
speed.
If

High-beam
assistance
Principle
High-beam
assistance
detects
other
road
users
in
good
time
and
activates
or
deactivates
the high
beam
depending
on
the
traffic
situation.
General High-beam
assistance
ensures
that
the
high-beam
headlights
are
switched
on
when
the
traffic
situation
allows.
The
system
does
not
switch
on
the
high-beam
headlights
at
low
speeds.
The
system
responds
to
the
lights
from
oncomj
ing
traffic
and
traffic
driving
ahead
of
you,
and
to
ambient
lighting,
for
example
in
built-up
areas.
The
high-beam
headlights
can
be
switched
on
and
off
manually
at
any
time.
If
the
no-dazzle
high
beam
assistant
is
installed,
the
high-beam
headlights
are
not
switched
off
for
oncoming
vehicles
or
vehicles
driving
ahead
of
you.
The
system
only
masks
those
areas
of
the
beam
which
would
otherwise
dazzle
oncomj
ing
traffic
or
traffic
driving
ahead.
In
this
case,
the
blue
indicator
lamp
continues
to
illuminate.
