When this function is activated, the headlight beams adjust laterally to help light up a curve according to movements of the steering wheel (see the right-pointing beam in the illustration).

ABL is activated automatically when the engine is started.

The function can be deactivated/reactivated in the MY CAR menu system under My XC60 Active Bending Lights or under Settings Active Bending Lights or under Settings Car settings Car settings Light settings Light settings Active Active Bending Lights.

See page 133 for a description of the menu system.

NOTE
This function is only active in twilight or dark conditions, and only when the vehicle is in motion.
