Vehicles with conventional lighting can be optionally equipped with adaptive front lighting. In this case the dipped beam headlamps are implemented with a projection lens. The system is not compatible with automatic headlamp inclination and only works when the lights are switched on.
When the dipped beam headlamps are in use only the projection headlamp is active. In full beam mode the full beam headlamps and the dipped beam headlamps are used.
While cornering, the dipped beam projectors swivel toward the inside of the bend, whereby the maximum attainable correction angles are 9° for the projector on the outside of the bend and 14° for the projector on the inside of the bend.
When reverse is engaged, adaptive front lighting is disabled. When reverse gear is disengaged again and the vehicle moves at a speed above 3 km/h, the adaptive front lighting follows the relevant steering movements.
During parking maneuvers at speeds of less than 3 km/h the adaptive front lighting does is not activated in order to prevent dazzling oncoming traffic when the steering wheel is being turned from one side to the other.
The adaptive front lighting actuator motors are stepper motors.
The headlamp leveling positioning motor cannot be replaced by itself. If necessary, it needs to be replaced together with the complete headlamp unit.
The headlamp leveling system motors are DC motors.
Before performing the headlamp alignment, check the steering with the aid of the Worldwide Diagnosis System (WDS). To do this, the headlamp leveling must be set to "0" and the steering wheel must be in the "0" position (+/- 3°).
System error
In the event of any system error(s) in the adaptive front lighting actuating motors the error message "Advanced Front Light Failure" is displayed on the driver information display in the instrument cluster. In the event of a headlamp leveling motor fault, both headlamps are moved to the central position by means of the adaptive front lighting actuator motors and they remain in this position. In the event of an adaptive front lighting actuator motor fault, the headlamp leveling motor moves the relevant headlamp to the lowest position where it remains. The intact headlamp is moved to the "0" position by the adaptive front lighting actuator motor.
The adaptive front headlamps can be adapted to different traffic requirements in different countries (e.g. driving on the left/right) by applying pre-cut adhesive template strips to specific areas of the headlamps.
