Use the headlamp flasher as usual when the
low beams are on.

System limits

The high-beam assistant cannot replace
personal judgment about the use of high

beams. In situations that require it, you should
therefore switch to low beams manually; failure
to do so can constitute a safety hazard.

<

In the following sample situations, the system
will not function or will only function to a limited
degree, possibly requiring the driver to react
personally:

>

in extremely unfavorable weather condi-
tions such as fog or heavy precipitation

>

when you perceive poorly illuminated road
users such as pedestrians, cyclists, horse-
back riders, carriages, when rail or shipping
traffic is close to the road, or at deer cross-
ings

>

in sharp curves, on steep hilltops or dips,
when there cross-traffic, or in the presence
of half-concealed oncoming traffic on the
highway

>

in poorly lit areas and in the presence of
highly reflective signs

>

in the low speed range

>

when the windshield in the region of the
interior rearview mirror is fogged, dirty, or
covered by stickers, decals, etc.

>

when the sensor is dirty. Clean the sensor
on the front side of the interior rearview mir-
ror with a cloth moistened with a little glass
cleaner.

"High beam assistant"

High-beam assistant is activated and is

Fog lamps*

First, switch on the parking lamps or the low
beams. The green indicator lamp in the instru-
ment panel lights up whenever the fog lamps
are on.

If the automatic headlamp control is acti-
vated, the low beams will come on auto-

matically when you switch on the fog lamps.
