Operating the high beam

You can control the high beam using the left-hand steering wheel stalk.

There are several different high beam options you can choose from to suit the driving conditions.

You can move the left-hand stalk forwards or backwards to switch between the different high beam options. The stalk always springs back to the neutral position.

The options available are:

Automatic high beam
Manual high beam
High beam flash

Note

Primary lighting modes

When you are in the automatic primary lighting mode, the high beam becomes part of the adaptive front-light system and works in different ways depending on the outside light conditions. You can enable the automatic high beam in all lighting conditions, but both the automatic and manual high beam can only be activated in low light conditions.

When passing beam is selected as the primary lighting mode, you can only activate the manual high beam.

The default lights setting is automatic1.

Enabling or activating the high beam

When the high beam is turned off, push the stalk once to enable the automatic high beam or activate the manual high beam.

Deactivating the high beam

Pull the stalk all the way towards you to turn the high beams off.

Flashing the high beam

A short pull of the stalk activates the high beam flash.

Switching between manual and automatic high beam

When automatic lights mode is selected and high beam is activated, push the stalk once to switch between automatic and manual high beam.

The lights settings reset to their default values between drives.

Important

Make sure that the vehicle cameras are well-maintained and kept clean. If the camera views are obscured by dirt, they will not be able to obtain enough information to properly direct the vehicle’s lighting responses.
