Automatic headlamp control
Switch position
:
the low beams are switched
on and off automatically, e.g., in tunnels, in twilight
or if there is precipitation. The LED next to
the symbol lights up.
A blue sky with the sun low on the horizon can cause the lights to be switched on.
The low beams remain switched on independent of the ambient lighting conditions when you switch on the front fog lamps.
Personal responsibility
The automatic headlamp control cannot
serve as a substitute for your personal judgment
in determining when the lamps should be
switched on in response to ambient lighting
conditions.
For example, the sensors are unable to detect fog or hazy weather. To avoid safety risks, you should always switch on the lamps manually under these conditions.◀
