Adaptive light control
The concept
Adaptive light control is a variable headlamp control system that enables dynamic illumination of the road surface.
Depending on the steering angle and other parameters, the light from the headlamp follows the course of the road.
Activating
Switch position 
with the
ignition switched
on.
The turning lamps are automatically switched on depending on the steering angle or the use of turn signals.
To avoid blinding oncoming traffic, the Adaptive Light Control does not swivel to the driver's side when the vehicle is at a standstill.
When driving in reverse, only the turning lamp is active.
Self-leveling headlights
The self-leveling headlights feature adapts the light distribution to the contours of the road.
The light distribution is lowered on hilltops to avoid blinding oncoming traffic and tilted in depressions to increase visibility.
Malfunction
A Check Control message is displayed.
Adaptive light control is malfunctioning or has failed. Have the system checked as soon as possible.
