Description and Operation

Conventional headlamps

Description

Turn signal lamp

Main beam headlamps

Dipped beam headlamps

The headlamp units are primarily made of plastic and make use of free-form reflectors in
order to optimize light distribution.

The transparent plastic cover is made from polycarbonate, which is coated for protection
against scratches and cracks.

In the event of damage to the cover the entire headlamp unit needs to be replaced.

The headlamp unit also houses the turn signal lamp and the main beam headlamp.

The manual headlamp leveling control is activated via an electric motor which is controlled
via a rotary regulator in the light switch.

The headlamp leveling positioning motor cannot be replaced by itself. If necessary, it needs
to be replaced together with the complete headlamp unit.

For conventional headlamps, adapting the vehicle to conform to country-specific traffic
situations (left/right-hand side traffic) during travel is accomplished by affixing punched
adhesive strips to specific areas of the headlamp.

All conventional headlamps use 12 V bulbs with a spiral-wound filament.

Adaptive front light

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.
