Automatic headlights
The following settings are available in the Automatic headlights menu:
Activation time - You can determine how soon the lights are switched on by using the settings early, medium or late to adjust the sensitivity of the light sensor.
Main beam assist* - You can switch the main beam assist* or adaptive headlight range control* on and off.
Audi adaptive light* - You can switch the adaptive light on and off.
Coming home, leaving home*
The coming home function lights up the area round the vehicle after dark when the ignition has been switched off and the driver's door opened. To activate this function, select Lights when getting out > on.
The leaving home function lights up the area round the vehicle after dark when the vehicle is unlocked. To activate this function, select Lights when unlocking > on.
The coming home and leaving home functions are operational after dark when the light switch is set to AUTO.
Daytime running lights*
In countries which allow the daytime running lights to be switched off/on, this can be done via the MMI*. In other countries, the daytime running lights stay on permanently.
Headlamp converter for driving abroad*
The asymmetric low beams of the headlights are designed to light up the nearside of the road more intensely. On vehicles with LED headlights* or xenon headlights* with turning light*, the headlight dip settings must be modified if you drive a right-hand drive vehicle in a left-hand drive country, or vice versa. Otherwise you will dazzle oncoming traffic. On vehicles with xenon headlights without turning light, it is not necessary to change the dip settings.
To avoid dazzling oncoming traffic:
  • On vehicles with LED headlights* or xenon headlights* with turning light*, the headlamp converter must be activated. Select MENU button > Car > control button Systems* > Vehicle settings > Exterior lighting > e.g. Lights for driving on left.
A message appears when the headlight settings have been changed:
Applies to left-hand drive vehicles:
Headlamp converter active for driving on left. Range reduced!
Applies to right-hand drive vehicles:
Headlamp converter active for driving on right. Range reduced!
Note
If the headlamp converter is activated, this is displayed in the driver information system every time the ignition is switched on.
