For more information, refer to the
General recommendations for
automatic lighting systems.
With the ring of the lighting control stalk in the
"AUTO" position and the function activated on
the touch screen, this system automatically
switches between dipped and main beam
headlamps, according to lighting and tra󰀩c
conditions, using a camera located at the top of
the windscreen.
This system is a driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and tra󰀩c conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
The system becomes operational when
the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).
When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the function is no longer operational.
Activation/Deactivation
With audio system
► To activate or deactivate the system, press
this button.
The indicator lamp in the button is on when the
function is activated.
With touch screen
The settings are adjusted via the vehicle
conguration menu.
► Then put the lighting control stalk ring in the
"AUTO" or "Dipped/main beam position".
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
► A "headlamp ash" pauses the
function and the lighting system switches
to "automatic illumination of lamps" mode:
– If the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to main
beam.
– If the "AUTO" and "Main beam"
indicator lamps were on, the system changes to
dipped beam.
► To reactivate the function, once again switch
the headlamps manually between dipped and
main beam.
Flashing the headlamps does not
deactivate the system.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched o󰀨.
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
– When visibility conditions are poor
(snowfall, heavy rain, etc.).
– If the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty, misted or obscured (for example, by a
sticker).
– If the vehicle is facing highly reective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
– Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
