Active Xenon headlamps*
Active xenon headlamps/active bending lights - ABL
If the car is equipped with active xenon headlamps/active bending lights (Active Bending Lights, ABL) the light from the headlamps follows the steering wheel movement in order to provide maximum lighting in bends and junctions and so provide increased safety.
The function is activated automatically when the car is started (provided that it has not been deactivated in the menu system MY CAR, see MY CAR). In the event of a fault in the function the symbol illuminates in the combined instrument panel at the same time as the information display shows an explanatory text and a further illuminated symbol.

The function is only active in twilight or darkness and only when the car is moving.
The function1 can be deactivated/activated in the menu system MY CAR, see MY CAR.
Cornering lights*
Active xenon headlamps/active bending lights with Automatic main beam function with adaptive functionality are equipped with cornering lights. The cornering lights temporarily illuminate the area diagonally in front of the car in the direction the steering wheel is turned on a sharp bend, or in the direction shown by the direction indicators.
The function is activated when main beam or dipped beam is used and the car's speed is lower than approx. 30 km/h (20 mph).
In addition, both cornering lights are switched on as a supplement to the reversing lamp during reversing.
