Assistance functions of the DIGITAL LIGHT

DIGITAL LIGHT visually expands on the driver assistance systems by projecting the assistant displays in front of the vehicle while it is in motion. DIGITAL LIGHT can therefore help the driver in critical situations.

The availability of the functions is dependent on the country.

The system is active in the following cases:
  • The light switch is in the position.

  • The high beam is switched on.

If you activate the head-up display with augmented reality, the projections can be deactivated depending on the situation.

Depending on the country in which you are currently driving, certain functions may be disabled due to different legal requirements, even if they are enabled in the multimedia system. When a border is crossed, the vehicle will automatically adapt to the valid requirements.

Spotlight

The spotlight function runs in the background and flashes the headlamps at detected persons within the lane markings in four short bursts. The driver is made aware of the position of oncoming pedestrians by a projected symbol.

The function is active under the following conditions:
  • You are driving outside illuminated areas.

  • The system detects a lane marking.

Warnings
If Traffic Sign Assist detects a corresponding situation, a triangle will be projected onto the road in the following situations at speeds of at least 30 km/h:
  • You are driving in the opposite direction to the permissible direction of travel, e.g. on a motorway slip road.

  • You are driving towards a stop sign without reducing your speed.

  • You are driving towards a red traffic light without reducing your speed.

Observe the system limits of Traffic Sign Assist More.

Notes
If Traffic Sign Assist detects a roadworks zone, the system will provide support as follows:
  • A corresponding symbol will be projected onto the road when you enter a roadworks zone.

  • When you drive through a roadworks zone, guide lines will be projected onto the road that roughly match the width of the vehicle. The guide lines will be suppressed for a while on tight bends.
