Bend light

Bend light is automatically activated at vehicle speeds below 40 km/h (25 mph) when the direction indicator is activated and/or when the steering wheel is rotated from the straight-ahead position towards the direction the car is about to turn and passes a programmable threshold for the angle. Bend light is deactivated automatically when the direction indicator is switched off and/or the steering wheel has returned to the straight-ahead position. Bend light is deactivated at vehicle speeds over 40 km/h (25 mph). If reverse gear is engaged, bend light remains in its parking position. Both lamps are lit. They go out 20 s after shifting out of reverse gear or if vehicle speed exceeds 7 km/h (4 mph). Bend light also has thermal protection. When they have been on for 2 minutes, the adaptive headlamp function deactivates the lamps for 2 minutes to allow them to cool.
