High Beam Assist
 

does anyone know how it really works ? i know that u need to turn the knob to the right with the A on it and i have gone to very dark streets but the high beam assist havent reallyhelped ..

anyone else experienced this ? and how can i make it work ?

thanks

what's your manual say?

dont remember

Here's an idea: go crack it open and read it.

we dont have that here in the US. Maybe its reflecting off the sand???

:rofl:

Nah, it's the plastic on the seats that's confusing it!

It really has to be completely dark. Not even one street light. It even shuts down on road signs as the reflection is negating the high beam assist. I tried mine on the road to Bab Al Shams, either from Dubai autodrome or form Abu Dhabi. It really works, but again you it has to be pitch black out there....

:iagree: 100%

yeah but there are a lot of times where it was pitch black but the high beam doesnt come on ..

Seems life in UAE is not so sweet... Tank is empty, streets are so dark and you have to use high beam to drive thru city:nanana: Be carefull, don't blind other drivers with reflection from your plastic wrappers...

where's the emoticon for flogging a dead horse

You need to have the lights on "A" but then you also need to push the high beam handle one "click" backwards to get it in the High Bean assistent mode. You will notice that it is in the High Bean assistent mode from the little pictogram appearing in the middle of the dash.

I have it and I love it !
It is great in the contryside but not in city or highways.

When on , you will see the Automatic Highbeam logo in the dashboard (in the center)

North American x5s dont come with high beam assist. I hope we get it soon

:dh: :dh:

Right here. Just below the RTFM icon (aimed at the OP, not you ;) )
