A. Without adaptive headlamps.

B. With adaptive headlamps.

The system only operates with the lighting control in the Auto Lamps position.

You can turn the system on or off on the touchscreen.

System Check (If Equipped)

The system performs a motion check when the power is turned on. When you start your vehicle, the lamps move from left to right, then return to center to alert the driver that the system is functioning properly.
