Tunnel detection (models with the rain
sensor* only)
The rain sensor reacts to the change in light-
ing conditions when, for example, the vehicle
enters a tunnel and the tunnel detection fea-
ture will then activate the low beam head-
lights. The low beams will be switched off
approx. 20 seconds after the vehicle leaves
the tunnel.
The rain sensor does not have to be activated
for tunnel detection to function.
