Auxiliary lights

Auxiliary lights are additional lighting units fitted to a vehicle to supplement its existing lighting system. They may be used to increase visibility over longer distances or illuminate specific areas.

Auxiliary lights can be designed for road use or for applications outside public roads. Road-approved auxiliary driving lights may supplement the vehicle’s high beam. Their approval, installation, electrical operation and combined luminous intensity must comply with the applicable regulations. The reference number is relevant when combining multiple high-beam headlights.

Auxiliary lights without the necessary road approval are used in applications such as off-road driving, construction sites and industrial premises. Depending on their intended purpose, they may feature different beam patterns, including spot and flood distributions.
