AUTOMATIC SWITCHING ON OF THE LIGHTS Side lights and dipped beam head- lamps switch on automatically if the
light is poor, or during continuousoperation of the windscreen wipers.
They switch off as soon as the lightbecomes bright enough or the wind-screen wipers stop. This function is active when the vehi-
cle is supplied to the customer.
To disarm or activate the function: Start with the key in the acces- sories position (1st notch),
Press the end of the stalk formore than two seconds.
Note: In foggy weather, the bright-
ness sensor can detect sufficientlight. Because of this, the lights do
not come on automatically. Do not cover the brightness sen-
sor connected to the rain sensor,located in the windscreen behind
the mirror. It is used for automaticswitching on of the lights. Operating check
Triggering of the sensor
Triggering of this function is accom- panied by an audible signal and themessage
"Automatic lighting of
the headlamps activated" on the
multi–function display. Note: Always operate the lighting
controls manually where this is pos- sible. Disarming Disarming of the function is accom- panied by an audible signal. When driving, if this function is
switched off when the headlampswould switch on in automatic mode,the lights remain on. It is however possible to disarm this
function and switch off the lights by:
- manually switching off the lights using the lights stalk,
- switching off the engine.
YOUR 406 IN DETAIL 125
If the brightness sensor does not
function correctly, the system acti-
vates the function (the lights come
on). The driver is alerted by theflashing of the 'dipped beam' warn-ing light on the instrument panel.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked. Follow me Home When there is a low level of bright- ness or at night, if you leave yourvehicle, the side lights and thedipped beam lights may remain onfor approximately one minute.
To do this: place the lights stalk in the AUTO
position,
place the key in the accessories position (first notch on key),
press the end of the lights stalk formore than two seconds,
place the lights stalk in the 0position,
flash the headlamps,
get out of the car and lock it.
