  • Виявлення світла: The sensor monitors ambient light levels. In low light conditions (e.g., tunnels, dusk, night), it can automatically activate the vehicle's headlights.
  • Sun and Humidity Measurement: These measurements contribute to the overall environmental assessment, influencing other integrated vehicle systems for optimal performance and comfort.
  • Head-Up Display Brightness: The sensor automatically adjusts the brightness of the head-up display to ensure optimal visibility in varying lighting conditions.

Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions on how to enable or disable automatic functions controlled by the rain sensor, if applicable.
