Daytime running lights With the knob for headlamp control in position, and the car's electrical system in key position II or the engine running, the daytime running lights are activated automatically in daylight.

Daytime running lights during the day. DRL

WARNING

This system help to save energy - it cannot determine in all situations when daylight is too weak or sufficiently strong, e.g. in mist and rain. The driver is always responsible for ensur- ing that the car is driven with the correct beam pattern for the traffic situation and in accordance with applicable traffic regula- tions.

Knob for headlamp control in AUTO position.

With the knob for headlamp control in position the daytime running lights (Daytime Running Lights - DRL) are activated automati- cally when the car is driven in daylight. A light sensor on the top of the instrument panel changes from daytime running lights to dipped beam at twilight or when daylight becomes too weak. Switching to dipped beam also takes place when the windscreen wipers or rear fog lamps are activated.

Tunnel detection* Tunnel detection changes the lighting from daytime running lights to dipped beam when the car is driven into a tunnel. Approx. 20 sec- onds after the car has left the tunnel, the light- ing returns to daytime running lights.

The tunnel detection function is available in cars with rain sensor*. The sensor detects the entrance to a tunnel and resets the lighting from daytime running lights to dipped beam. Approx. 20 seconds after the car has left the tunnel, the lighting returns to daytime running lights. If the car is driven into another tunnel within this time period then dipped beam is kept switched on. This avoids repeated changes to the car's lighting. Note that the headlamp control's knob must position for tunnel detection remain in to work.

Active main beam* Active main beam function is available with on/off functionality, or adaptive functionality, depending on headlamp variant. The function detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in front, and switches the lighting from main beam to dipped beam. Active main beam with adap- tive functionality only dims the part of the light beam that points directly to the vehicle. The lighting returns to main beam when the incoming light has stopped.

Active main beam - AHB Active main beam (Active High Beam - AHB) is a function which uses a camera sensor at the top edge of the windscreen to detect the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in front, and then switches from main beam to dipped beam. The function can also take streetlights into account. Car with halogen headlamps The lighting returns to main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front. Car with active Xenon headlamps If the active main beam has the on/off func- tionality then the lighting returns to main

beam about a second after the camera sen- sor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic the rear lights of vehi- cles in front. If the active main beam has adaptive func- tionality then, unlike what happens during conventional dimming, the light beam contin- ues to illuminate with main beam on both sides of oncoming traffic or vehicles ahead - only the part of the light beam that points directly to the vehicle is dimmed.

Adaptive functionality: Dipped beam directly toward oncoming vehicles, but continued main beam on both sides of the vehicle. The lighting returns to full main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
