Fenester Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Technology Pack Adaptive Lights Being these lights read the road and adapt their beams for curves and roundabouts; when driving on the right (France etc) do they compensate for continental roads i.e. know that you on the right and therefore adjust the headlights meaning you don't have to fit beam benders? Dealer doesn't have a clue as yet about how to deal with these lights for driving on the continent. I have asked the question of Ford via the main dealer and I am still waiting for a reply.

alexp999 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 You just have to change them to right hand traffic in the drivers display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenester Posted July 23, 2022 Author Share Posted July 23, 2022 I will have another look tomorrow, but I went through the settings and there wasn't one for this that I could see. 2022 Kuga STline X with tech pack and driver assistance pack. Do you know the menu sequence? I hope you are right, I'll feedback after I have looked in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 The settings might now be via the touch screen. The handbook is a bit confusing. https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/Catalog/owner_information/CG3851en-202104-20210407114440.pdf Also this might be of interest: https://www.kugaownersclub.co.uk/threads/european-driving-headlight-adjustment.8454/page-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is interesting that you get the answers on here rather than the Ford dealership who seem to know little about their product. Training needs to be strengthened, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanksonfire Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I've got my new Kuga 2.5 ST Line X Edition being delivered in March (It's already in the UK from Spain). It's the FHEV (190). Do you know if it's got adaptive headlights fitted as standard for this model ?? Thanks in advance 👍👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
