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 select the automatic or passing beam primary lighting mode.
You can choose between manual and automatic high beam. However, automatic high beam is only available in the automatic lights mode1 and only activates in low lighting conditions.
Automatic high beam
When enabled, the automatic high beam automatically adapts the beam pattern to surrounding traffic 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.
Adaptive motorway light
The adaptive motorway light is part of the automatic high beam system. If you are driving at high speeds on the motorway, the adaptive motorway light adapts the beam pattern on the passenger’s side of the road to surrounding traffic. The high beam on the driver's side automatically switches to passing beam if any traffic is detected.
 | The manual high beam is active. |
