What is Adaptive Highbeam Assist?

The Mercedes-Benz Adaptive Highbeam Assist can automatically activate the high beams when camera technology detects there are no vehicles within range ahead of you. The system ensures that you have better lighting in every situation on the road.

How does Adapative Highbeam Assist work?

To use Adaptive Highbeam Assist in your Mercedes, set the rotary light switch to "Auto" and activate the assistant using the control lever on the steering wheel. The camera system registers oncoming vehicles and vehicles in front, provided they are themselves using their lighting system. At speeds greater than 19 mph and if no other road users are detected, high beam will switch on automatically. The system will switch to low beam when you are driving at speeds below 16 mph, if other road users are detected, or if there is sufficient street lighting.

Which Mercedes-Benz models feature Adaptive Highbeam Assist?

Adaptive Highbeam Assist is a standard safety feature on Mercedes-Benz vehicles, ensuring optimal safety and convenience for all drivers. These models include the C-Class, known for its luxury and advanced technology; the E-Class, which offers a refined combination of style and performance; the S-Class, epitomizing ultimate luxury and innovation; the GLC, a versatile and sophisticated SUV; the GLE, which combines elegance with powerful performance; and the GLS, providing spaciousness and premium features. Adaptive Highbeam Assist is standard on many Mercedes-AMG® models for those who seek high performance with added safety and convenience.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist does not react to road users without lights (pedestrians), poor lighting (cyclists), or where lighting is obstructed (by a barrier). On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam Assist may fail to recognize other road users with their own lighting, or may recognize them too late. Detection may also be restricted in poor visibility due to weather conditions and/or if there is dirt on the sensors or the sensors are obscured. Always observe the road and traffic conditions carefully and switch off the high beam in good time. Adaptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting to the prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions.
