03 Your driving environment Lighting Active high beams - AHB* AHB is a feature that uses a camera at the upper edge of the windshield to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles or the taillights of a vehicle directly ahead. When this happens, the headlights will automatically switch from high beams to low beams. When the camera no longer detects the headlights/ taillights of other vehicles, your headlights will switch back to high beams after several seconds. To activate this feature, turn the light switch to position. Activation will occur if the the engine has been running for at least 20 seconds and the vehicle's speed is at least 12 mph (20 km/h). Activate/deactivate AHB by pulling the left steering wheel lever rearward (toward the steering wheel) as far as possible and releasing it. If AHB is deactivated while the high beams are on, the headlights will switch to low beams. If the symbol illuminates in the instrument panel and AHB unavailable is displayed, switching between high and low beams will have to be done manually. The light switch can remain in the AUTO position. The same applies if Windscreen Sensors blocked is displayed and the symbol is displayed. The 03 symbol will go out when these messages are displayed. AHB may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When AHB becomes active again or if the sensors in the windshield are no longer obscured, the messages will disappear and the When AHB is activated, the symbol will illuminate in the instrument panel. The high ) in the instrument panel beam indicator ( will also illuminate when the high beams are on. symbol will illuminate.
