Automatic Alignment Of The Main-Beam Assistant

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 46 other vehicles, including the 2008 BMW M5, 2008 BMW 650i, 2007 BMW Z4, 2007 BMW M6, and 2007 BMW M5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

In order to operate correctly, the image sensor must be aligned parallel with the vehicle's centreline. When the car is driven at night, the main-beam assistant can automatically correct alignment up to 3° to the left or 3° to the right. This correction compensates for minor deviations from the centreline.

Driving conditions for automatic directional orientation of the main-beam assistant are:

Straight ahead for a distance of approx. 50 km: A relatively straight stretch accelerates the directional orientation.
Road marking must be clearly visible.
