OVERVIEW

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

The exterior lighting consists of:

• The 2 headlamp assemblies, each contains:
  • Low beam
  • High beam
  • Turn Signal Indicator
  • Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs)
  • Front Position Lamp (ROW)/Parking Lamp (NAS)
• The 2 tail lamp assemblies, each contains:
  • Turn Signal Indicator
  • Rear Position Lamp (ROW)/Tail Lamp (NAS)
  • Stop lamp
  • Reverse Lamp.
• Front side marker lamp/Reflector (quantity 2) (NAS only)
• Rear side marker lamp/Reflector (quantity 2) (NAS only)
• The front fog lamp (quantity 2) (if equipped)
• The rear fog lamp/Reflector (quantity 2)
• HMSL
• The front and rear height sensors
• License Plate Lamp (quantity 2)
• The IPMA
• The rain/light sensor.

The BCM/ GWM is connected to the High Speed (HS) Controller Area Network (CAN) system buses and the FlexRay.

The BCM/ GWM contains a microprocessor which controls, monitors and evaluates the functions.

Driver lighting selections are made using the:

• Left steering column switch
• The hazard warning lamp switch
• The IPC dimmer (if equipped)
• The FCDIM.

Depending on model and market specification, the lighting system may have:

• Auto High Beam, operates the headlamp automatically switched between low and high beam in response to signals from the IPMA or.
• Adaptive Driving Beam, evaluates the road scene ahead of the vehicle, automatically adapts the light distribution according to the position of the preceding, oncoming traffic. The Adaptive Driving Beam also uses the IPMA.
• Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS) modifies the beam patterns based on driving conditions and speed.
