The concept
You also enjoy the option of lighting up just one
side of your vehicle when parking. When using
this function, comply with national regulations:
Adaptive Head Light is a variable headlamp
control system that enables better illumination
of the road surface. Depending on the steering
angle and other parameters, the light from the
headlamp follows the course of the road.
Switching on
After parking the vehicle, press the lever in the
desired direction 3, past the resistance point.
Activating Adaptive Head Light
The roadside parking lamps drain the bat-
tery. Do not leave them switched on for
long periods of time, as otherwise it may no
longer be possible to start the engine.<
In switch position 3, the Adaptive Head Light is
active and the automatic headlamp control is
switched on, refer to page 83.
To avoid dazzling oncoming traffic, the Adap-
tive Head Light is not active when driving in
reverse and points toward the passenger side
when the vehicle is stopped.
Switching off
Briefly press the lever in the opposite direc-
tion 3 up to the resistance point.
Malfunction
The LED next to the symbol for automatic head-
lamp control flashes. Adaptive Head Light is
malfunctioning or has failed. Have the system
checked as soon as possible.
High-beam assistant*
The concept
This system automatically switches the high
beams on and off again. A sensor on the front of
the inside rearview mirror controls the process.
The assistant ensures that the high beams are
switched on whenever the traffic situation
allows. This reduces the strain on you while at
the same time providing you with the best pos-
sible visibility. Of course, you can intervene at
