Automatic main beam
headlights
This system switches the main beam
headlights on and off automatically. The
function uses a camera located behind
the interior rear-view mirror to detect
vehicles that are following and coming
in the opposite direction.
The main beam headlights come on au-
tomatically if:
exterior light is weak;
no other vehicles or lighting are de-
tected;
vehicle speed is greater than 30 mph
(45 km/h).
If any of the above conditions are not
fulfilled, the system switches to dipped
beam headlights.
The “automatic main beam headlights” system should under no circum-
stances be used to replace driver attention and responsibility with regard
to vehicle lighting and adapting to light, visibility and traffic conditions.
Using the portable naviga-
tion system at night in the
windscreen area below the
camera may disturb the op-
eration of the “automatic main beam
headlights” system (risk of reflection
on the windscreen).
Activation
Turn ring 3 until the AUTO symbol is op-
posite mark 2.
Pull stalk 1 to activate main beam
headlights.
Warning light
comes on the in-
strument panel.
Deactivation
pull stalk 1 again;
or
turn ring 3 to a position other than
AUTO.
Warning light
goes out on the in-
strument panel.
Operating faults
When the message “Check main beam
lights” appears on the instrument panel,
the system is deactivated.
Consult an approved dealer.

hicle has weak or hidden lighting;
