AHL = ALC
The development designation for adaptive headlights was (ALC), which stood for (Adaptive Light Control).
The marketing and sales designation of Special equipment 524 for English-speaking countries is (Adaptive headlights), abbreviated to (AHL).
In the diagnosis functions and in the technical vehicle documentation, the abbreviation AHL is used for the adaptive headlights system and its control unit. Some control units, however, are still marked (ALC).

Introduction
The adaptive headlights system turns the main-beam and dipped-beam headlights towards the inside of a bend when cornering. This improves illumination of the curve of the road. Visibility is therefore improved.
When cornering, the driver is not looking into a (black hole) instead; the adaptive headlights allow the driver to see the curve of the road.
