Continental driving with bi-xenon active lights

[Mike H]

Sorry, I have no paperwork for the update they did! Would have thought a dealer in Holland could find out, whenever I have had to go to one they have been very helpful.

Someone has been misinforming you

If you have the Driver Support pack with Active High beam then you are correct you will not need it, but for standard bi-xenon you still need to sway the dip over as the 'kick' in the lights on the lhs in UK needs to be on the right on mainland Europe.

No one has misinformed me! Stop being grumpy and read what people write. Mine works properly now.

I did read what you say, perhaps in your haste to reply you have forgotten what you said?

You stated:

and I merely informed you that this is incorrect - the new bendy headlights installed on MY14 onwards still require setting for temporary lh/rh driving - unless you have Active High Beam.

Now that is not being grumpy, that is being accurate and informative

Sorry, this is incorrect at least for some MY14 XC60s. My MY14 with bendy lights (but NOT active high beam) has a flat pattern that does not require adjusting for continental driving.

For the third time I have read the web version (owners manual) for the MY14.5 V60.
I cannot find a switch or menu on how to move the ABL's from LH to RH, whilst driving in Europe.
Can you please point me in the right direction, as I am becoming totaly confused.

Thank you.

Tem,

Page 18 in the Sensus Infotainment manual - not logical but that it where it is For the XC60.

Thank you.
I have found it for the V60 ABL's.
I now wonder if I will have to select RH every time I start the car?
