Activating Adaptive Headlights In Conjunction With Daytime Driving Lights

The special equipment "Daytime driving lights" (Northern Europe and Canada) means that the dipped headlights and the side lights are always on. 

• Light switch in position "2"
• Terminal 15 ON

The automatic headlight-range adjustment is active (actuated by the control unit for adaptive headlights).

If terminal 15 is switched off, the dipped headlights and the side lights are automatically switched off as well.

The light switch must also be set to position "A" with the "Daytime driving lights" option. The control unit for adaptive headlights is then in standby.

System functions for "Daytime driving lights" option when the light switch is set to position "A":

• If the vehicle is encoded with the "Daytime driving lights" option (end of production line), the light switch can remain in position "A" at all times.

  When terminal R is switched on, the side lights, parking lights and licence plate lighting are switched on.

  As soon as terminal 15 is switched on, the dipped headlights are also switched on.

• When the dipped headlights are switched on, the control unit for adaptive headlights is activated (for automatic headlight-range adjustment).
• The indicator lamp on the light switch lights up and indicates that the system is functional.
• The adaptive headlights turn when the vehicle is stationary if the steering wheel is turned (to the right only).
• The headlights are moved when the vehicle corners if the rain-light sensor registers darkness.

  The switch-on conditions for the adaptive headlights in conjunction with special equipment "Daytime driving lights" are as follows:

• The vehicle must be encoded with the "Daytime driving lights" option (end of production line)
• Light switch in must be set to position "A"
• Terminal 15 must be switched on and reverse gear must not be engaged
• The rain-light sensor must detect darkness
