I'll hold my hands up and say I've never given it much thought before but anyone know what this is on the windscreen?

I'll guess you have Adaptive headlights?

Looks like a dash cam?

I think it's the Kafas camara for the highbeam assist. Possibly used for adaptive cruise too.

It’s the basic camera for high beam assist, not adaptive cruise or speed sign recognition.

Mines always switched on, works great 99% time

First off sorry for the horrendous title of this thread I literally don't know what happened maybe autocorrect?

Interesting it's high beam assist I've never really noticed it helps high beam but always good to know what it is!

Its not active by default....

You need to activate HBA using the button above the BC on the left stalk.

You will see a green icon on the dials to indicate HBA is enabled.
