High-beam Assistant*

The concept

When the lights are switched on, this system

automatically switches the high beams on and

off. The procedure is controlled by a sensor on

the front of the interior rearview mirror. The as‐

sistant ensures that the high beams are

switched on whenever the traffic situation al‐

lows. The driver can intervene at any time and

switch the high beams on and off as usual.

Activating the High-beam Assistant

1. Turn the light switch to .

2. With the low beams switched on, briefly

push the turn indicator lever in the direction

of the high beam.

The indicator lamp in the instrument

cluster lights up.

When the lights are switched on, the

high beams are switched on and off automati‐

cally.

The system responds to light from oncoming

traffic and traffic driving ahead of you, and to ad‐

equate illumination, e.g., in towns and cities.

Switching the high beams on and off

manually

▷ High beams on, arrow 1.

▷ High beams off/headlamp flasher, arrow 2.

beams.

System limits

Personal responsibility

The High-beam Assistant cannot serve as

a substitute for the driver's personal judgment

of when to use the high beams. Therefore, man‐

ually switch off the high beams in situations

where this is required to avoid a safety risk.◀

The system is not fully functional in situations

such as the following, and driver intervention

may be necessary:

▷ In very unfavorable weather conditions,

such as fog or heavy precipitation.
