Updated 2021-10-04

Active Bending Lights (ABL) are designed to help provide extra illumination in curves and intersections. Depending on equipment level, vehicles with LED1 headlights* may be equipped with Active Bending Lights.

P5-1507-Active Bending Light, headlamp pattern — Headlight pattern without Active Bending Lights (left), and with (right).

Active Bending Lights follow the movement of the steering wheel to help provide extra illumination in curves and intersections, helping to improve visibility for the driver.

If a fault is detected in the system, the P5-1507-Active Bending Light Symbol symbol will illuminate in the instrument panel and a message will be displayed.

The function is only active in weak daylight or dark conditions and only when the vehicle is moving and the low beams are on.
