Function of Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus
WARNING Risk of accident despite Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus
Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus does not recognise the following road users:
  • Road users without lights, e.g. pedestrians

  • Road users with poor lighting, e.g. cyclists

  • Road users whose lighting is obstructed, e.g. by a barrier

In very rare cases, Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus may not recognise road users who do have lights, or may recognise them too late.

In this, or in similar situations, the automatic main beam will not be deactivated or will be activated despite the presence of other road users.

Always observe the traffic carefully and switch off the main beam in good time.
System limitations

Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus cannot take into account road, weather or traffic conditions.

Detection may be restricted if:
  • Visibility is impaired, for example in fog, heavy rain or snow.

  • There is dirt on the sensors or the sensors are obscured.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus is only an aid. You are responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting to the prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus switches automatically between:
  • Dipped beam

  • Partial main beam

  • Main beam

The partial main beam uses the main beam to shine past other road users rather than dazzling them. The vehicle in front is illuminated by the dipped beam.

At speeds above 30 km/h:
  • If no other road users are detected, the main beam is automatically switched on.

  • If other road users are detected, the partial main beam is automatically switched on.

At speeds below 25 km/h or when there is sufficient street lighting:
  • The partial main beam switches off automatically.

  • The main beam switches off automatically.

At speeds above approx. 50 km/h:
  • The headlamp range of the dipped beam is regulated automatically based on the distance to other road users.

The system's optical sensor is located behind the windscreen near the overhead control panel.
