High beam
The high beam is important for your driving visibility. There are different states you can use to suit your needs.
Remember that your ability to see the road properly in low lighting conditions is important not just for your own safety, but for other road users and pedestrians too.Important
The high beam is more powerful and has a longer reach of illumination than the passing beam. To use the high beam, you must first select the automatic or passing beam primary lighting mode.
You can choose between manual and automatic high beam. However, automatic high beam is only available in the automatic lights mode[1] and only activates in low lighting conditions.
Automatic high beam
When enabled, the automatic high beam automatically adapts the beam pattern to surrounding traffic to avoid dazzling other road users.
The automatic high beam only activates at speeds over approximately 20 km/h (12 mph) and in low light.Note
You can use the left-hand steering wheel stalk to switch between the manual high beam and the automatic high beam. There are symbols in the driver display that show which high beam setting is currently active. These include:
 | The manual high beam is active. |
 | The automatic high beam is enabled but not active.[2] |
 | The automatic high beam is active and the lights are turned on. |
Make sure that the car cameras are well-maintained and kept clean. If the cameras’ views are obscured by dirt, they will not be able to obtain enough information to properly direct the car’s lighting responses.Important
