Physical limits of system operation

The automatic system cannot judge the need to switch off the high beams better than the driver. Therefore, if you see such a need, switch off the high beams manually.◄

The following are examples of situations in which the system's capabilities are limited and driver intervention is required:

► Adverse weather conditions (fog, heavy precipitation)

► Poorly lit road users (pedestrians, cyclists, horse-drawn vehicles, etc.), a railway line or waterway next to the road, wild animals

► Sharp curves, steep ascents and descents, oncoming vehicles crossing at right angles or partially hidden

► Poorly lit built-up areas and strongly reflective signs

► Low speed

► The windshield area in front of the rear view mirror is dirty or obstructed (by a sticker, toll badge, etc.)

► The sensor is dirty. Clean the sensor (located on the inside rear view mirror, near the windshield) with a cloth moistened with glass cleaner
