Active bending lights are designed to provide additional illumination in bends and junctions. Cars with LED (LED (Light Emitting Diode)) headlamps (Option/accessory) can have active bending lights, depending on the car’s equipment level.
Headlamp pattern without active bending lights (left) and with active bending lights (right).

Active main beam is activated and deactivated by turning the left-hand stalk switch to position
Adaptive functionality

(Depending on the car’s equipment level) In this case, unlike what happens during conventional dimming, the light beam continues to illuminate with main beam on both sides of oncoming traffic or vehicles ahead – only the part of the light beam that points directly to the vehicle is dimmed.
Adaptive functionality: Dipped beam directly towards oncoming vehicle, but continued main beam on both sides of the vehicle. The main beam is partly dimmed, i.e. if the light beam shines with slightly more than dipped beam, the symbol
