Bixenon Headlights

Bixenon Headlights
The optional bixenon headlights represent a major advance in road illumination and headlamp range. Their function is identical to the bixenon headlights on the E46. When the headlights are switched on using the steering column stalk, an electromagnet controls a movable beam pattern screen in the ellipsoid module of the dipped beam headlight. That screen then uncovers the high part of the headlight beam.

Note: If the headlight flasher function is required, the bixenon beam pattern screen is not activated Only the high beam headlight (H7) is activated The bixenon light reacts too slowly to that signal.
