Fog/Driving Lamp: Description and Operation

Lighting System

Fog light function







The fog light function improves visibility for the driver while at the same time reducing glare for oncoming traffic on wet roads or in low-visibility conditions, e.g. in fog or when driving on snow. It is linked to activation of the fog lights. The dipped beam spreads out wider and the left headlight adapts the light/dark border horizontally, thereby reducing the range of the light beam. The left headlight also swivels to the left, causing the focal point of the light to move outwards accordingly. This reduces glare for the driver. The fog light function is available at speeds of up to 45 mph (70 km/h). The lighting system switches back to country road light at higher speeds.
