High beam
The high beam is important for your driving visibility. There are different states you can use to suit your needs.
Important
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.
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 either the automatic lights mode or the manual passing beam.
You can choose between either the automatic high beam, or the manual high beam.
When enabled, the automatic high beam automatically switches between the high beam and the passing beam to avoid dazzling other road users.
Note
The automatic high beam only activates at speeds over approximately 20 km/h (12 mph) and in low light.
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.1 |
 | The automatic high beam is active. |
Important
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.
