The cornering light function is an additional

about 40km/h (25mph) or on very tight bends.
If the steering wheel is turned or the turn sig-
nal is switched on, the front fog light gradually
turns on. After the turn, the cornering light func-
tion is gradually switched o.
When engaging reverse gear, both front fog
lights turn on.

Daytime running lights can increase the ve-
hicles visibility when driving in daylight and
they turn on automatically when the ignition is
switched on (if brightness is detected).

ted with LED High lights.
The function is connected and disconnected

beam raises slightly to increase the driver's visi-
bility distance.

the vehicle below 100km/h (62mph), the dip-
ped beam immediately returns to its normal po-
sition.
