Cornering light function
The cornering light function improves the illumination of the road over a wide angle in the direction you are turning, enabling better visibility in tight bends, for example. It can only be activated when the low-beam headlamps are switched on.
Active
:
• if you are driving at speeds below
25mph (40 km/h) and switch on the turn
signal or turn the steering wheel
• if you are driving at speeds between
25mph (40 km/h) and45mph (70 km/h)
and turn the steering wheel
Not active
: if your speed exceeds 25mph (40 km/h) or if you switch off the turn signal or turn the steering wheel to the straight-ahead position.
The cornering light function may remain lit for a short time, but is automatically switched off after no more than three minutes.
