Important safety notes
G WARNING
Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus does not rec-
ognize road users:
R who have no lights, e.g. pedestrians
R who have poor lighting, e.g. cyclists
R whose lighting is blocked, e.g. by a barrier
In very rare cases, Adaptive Highbeam Assist
Plus may not recognize road users who do
have lights, or may recognize them too late. In
this or similar situations, the automatic high-
beam headlamps will not be deactivated or
will be activated regardless. There is a risk of
an accident.
Always carefully observe the traffic conditions
and switch off the high-beam headlamps in
good time.
Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus cannot take
into account road, weather or traffic condi-
tions. Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus is only
an aid. You are responsible for adjusting the
vehicle's lighting to the prevailing light, visi-
bility and traffic conditions.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can
be restricted if there is:
R poor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or
snow
R
dirt on the sensors or the sensors are
obscured
