See my post above. They exist. It's the inner most lighting element next to the slant closest to the grill in the headlight unit.

Manual states the conditions on how it's activated:

Adaptive light functions are active when set to AUTO

In tight curves, for instance on mountainous roads or when turning, an additional, cornering light is switched on that lights up the inside of the curve when the vehicle is moving below a certain speed.

In the F15 that certain speed was less than 25MPH


The cornering light is automatically switched on depending on the steering angle.

Usually it's more than 15 degrees.


When driving in reverse, the cornering lights may be automatically switched on regardless of the steering angle.

Both cornering lights come on in reverse.
