Daytime running lights
Separate lamps are installed in the headlights or in the front bumper for the daytime running lights.
When the daytime running lights are switched on, only these separate lamps come
on ⇒ .
The daytime running lights are switched on whenever the ignition is switched
on and the light switch is in position or
.
The
or
indicator light in the instrument cluster indicates that the feature is active ⇒
Indicator lights .
If the light switch is in position ,
a low light sensor switches the instrument and switch lighting on and off automatically.
The daytime running lights can be activated and deactivated in the Lights & Vision menu in the instrument cluster display ⇒ Volkswagen Information System .
Static cornering lights
Your vehicle may have fog lights under the front bumper that are also static cornering lights. At speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h), the light on one side of the vehicle will come on when you turn a corner. If you turn to the right, the right fog light comes on; turn left and the left fog light comes on. The light dims and goes out when the steering wheel is straightened out again.
The static cornering lights work only when the headlights are on. If you are
using automatic headlight control (headlight switch in the ()
position) ⇒ Fig. 82 , they work only when the headlights have been automatically
switched on. The static cornering lights do not come on when the headlight switch
is in the
position or when the fog lights themselves
have been switched on ⇒ Switching lights on and off .
Automatic headlight control
Automatic headlight control is a convenience feature only and cannot always recognize all lighting and driving situations.
If the light switch is in the
position, both vehicle lighting and instrument and switch lighting are automatically
switched on and off in the following situations ⇒
:
Automatic activation: | Automatic deactivation: |
---|---|
If the low light sensor registers darkness, for example when driving through a tunnel. | If sufficient brightness is registered. |
If the rain sensor recognizes rain and switches the windshield wipers on. | If the windshield wipers have not moved for several minutes. |
Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
The Adaptive Front Lighting System works only with the low beams switched on and only at speeds above about 6 mph (10 km/h). The swivel-mounted lamps automatically improve road illumination during cornering.
On vehicles equipped with the Adaptive Front Lighting System, the feature is switched on and off via the Assistant menu ⇒ Volkswagen Information System .
On some models, the headlights move independently of each other, even in straight-ahead driving. They adapt to weather conditions and speed to better illuminate the roadway. The headlights return to their original position after a delay, depending on the speed of the vehicle.
Warning
In cool or humid weather, the insides of the headlights, rear lights, and turn signals can temporarily fog up. This is normal and does not affect the service life of the vehicle's lighting system.
