Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus function
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

On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus may fail to recognise other road users that 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.

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

Detection may be restricted in the following cases:
  • in poor visibility, e.g. fog, heavy rain or snow

  • if 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.

The Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus automatically switches between the following types of light:
  • Low beam

  • Partial high beam

  • High beam

  • ULTRA RANGE Highbeam

ULTRA RANGE Highbeam increases the brightness of the cone of light to the legally permitted maximum.

Partial high beam uses the high beam to shine past other road users rather than dazzling them. The vehicle in front is illuminated by the low beam.

At speeds below 25 km/h or when there is sufficient street lighting:
  • The partial high beam and the high beam switch off automatically.

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

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

At speeds above 40 km/h:
  • If no other road users are detected on a straight road, ULTRA RANGE Highbeam is switched on automatically.

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

  • If highly reflective signs are detected, ULTRA RANGE Highbeam is switched off automatically.

At speeds above approximately 50 km/h:
  • The headlamp range of the low 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.
