The following conditions must be satisfied for the turning lights to be switched on:
-
Terminal 15 ON
-
Light switch in position "A" ("A" stands for automatic driving lights control)
-
Rain-light sensor detects twilight or darkness (threshold exceeded)
The turning lights are not activated at speeds greater than 70 km/h.
> Europe version:
For legal reasons, the turning lights on the Europe version can only be activated via the turn signal indicator at
speeds up to 40 km/h.
When reversing, the footwell module (FRM) activates the turning lights as follows in the speed range 0 km/h to
35 km/h:
-
US version:both sides
-
Other countries: outside of turn only
When the turn signal indicator is switched on:
If the vehicle is stationary, the turning lights will automatically be deactivated after approx. 4 seconds,
e.g. when waiting at traffic lights. However, the turning lights can be activated again with the turn-signal/main-
beam switch (up to 3 times) until the reflector has reached a certain temperature.
A temperature model protects the headlights from excessive thermal stress.
The switching-off conditions for the turning light depend on the country concerned.
