AUTO HIGH BEAM ASSIST (AHBA) [G2878005]

Auto High Beam Assist (AHBA) automatically selects and deselects the high beam headlights based on various light readings, including:

  1. Ambient lighting.
  2. Road lighting.
  3. Lighting from oncoming vehicles.
WARNING:

AHBA must not be relied on to react correctly in all circumstances. The driver remains responsible for the correct use of the headlights at all times. Incorrect use of the headlights could lead to an accident, potentially causing serious injury or death.

WARNING:

AHBA uses sensors mounted on the rear of the rear-view mirror. Keep this area of the vehicle clean and free from obstructions, e.g. stickers, debris, mud, snow, or ice. Failure to do so may lead to sensor miscalculations, which could lead to an accident, potentially causing serious injury or death.

  2. Select ALL.
