Operation

Manual high beam switching

~1min read

If desired, you can intervene in the high beam control at any time:

► If the system has switched on the high beam and you want the low beam, switch off the high beam with the turn signal lever. The high beam assistant is then deactivated.

To reactivate the system, push the turn signal lever in the direction for high beam activation.

► If the automatic system has switched on the low beams and you want the high beams, switch them on manually. The automatic system is then deactivated.

To reactivate the system, push the turn signal lever in the direction for high beam activation.

► The flashing headlight signal can be used as usual when the high beams are off.
