Malfunction
High-beam assistant*
The LED next to the symbol for automatic head-
lamp control flashes. Adaptive light control is
malfunctioning or has failed. Have the system
checked as soon as possible.
The concept
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 assistant ensures that the high
beams are switched on whenever the traffic sit-
uation allows. It handles this task for you and
gives you the benefit of the best possible view.
You can intervene at any time and switch the
high beams on and off as usual.

High beams
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when the high beams

traffic ahead of you, and adequate ambient
lighting, e.g. on city streets.

high beams, but you would like to drive with

beams using the turn indicator lever. This

To reactivate the system, briefly push the
turn indicator lever toward the high beams
again.
The roadside parking lamps drain the bat-
tery. Therefore, do not leave them on for
unduly long periods of time; otherwise, the bat-
tery might not have enough power to start the
engine.<
Switching off
