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 activate the automatic lights mode[1] or the passing beam.
You can choose between either the automatic high beam or the manual high beam.
You activate the automatic high beam by rotating the ring on the left-hand steering wheel stalk to the automatic high beam symbol 
. The ring always springs back to the automatic lights mode 
.
When the automatic high beam is enabled, your car automatically adapts the beam pattern to avoid dazzling other road users.
When enabled, the automatic high beam only activates at speeds over approximately 20 km/h (12 mph) in low light.Note
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. |
 | The automatic high beam is active. |
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
