dipped headlights in addition to the lights
switched on in sidelight position.
The left-hand column stalk switch has
two positions for controlling the main
beam.
Pulling the switch towards the steering
wheel and releasing causes the main
beam to flash on and off. The main beam

Direction Indicators
The direction indicators, the left column
stalk, operate when the ignition is in
position ‘II’. Move the stalk up for
indicating a right turn or move it down to
indicate a left turn.
Two positions are provided. The first
position, partly moving the stalk up or
down, causes the indicator to flash while
it is held in this position. On releasing the
stalk the indicators stop flashing.
The second position is a full movement of
the stalk up or down, which can then be
released. The indicators will remain
flashing and will cancel when the turn is
completed. An audible ticking an
d a flashing green
arrow on the instrument cluster indicates
that the selected direction indicator is
operating.
Bulb failure
The direction indicators (including those
on a trailer, if attached) and side
repeaters are monitored for bulb failure.
If a bulb fails when it is on, a message is
shown in the message centre. At the same
time, the corresponding side green
warning light will flash at twice the
normal rate. The audible ticking will
sound at twice the normal rate.Door Guard/Puddle Lights
Door guard lights are fitted to each door
to give warning of an open door to
passing vehicles.
Puddle lights illuminate the ‘step out’
area at night.
Each light comes on automatically when
the door is opened. If the door is left
open the lights remain on for 5 minutes
and then switch off.
Approach Lights
Approach lights are fitted in the door
mirrors to provide illumination for the
floor area around the front doors.
The approach lights come on when:
• The vehicle is unlocked using a key, key transmitter or the central locking
switch.
• Using the headlight convenience button on the key transmitter.
• Reverse gear is selected.
The approach lights will not illuminate if
the autolamp sensor determines that the
ambient light is sufficiently bright.

Window Operation
The front and rear door windows are
electrically operated by switches located
on each door.
Switches on the driver’s door control all
door windows.
Passengers are provided with a switch to
control their door window only.
These switches will only operate the
windows when the ignition switch is in
position ‘I’ or ‘II’.
Button (A) immobilises operation of the
rear windows (and front seat adjustment,
when fitted) by rear seat occupants.
!WARNING:
1. When raising windows ensure all occupants are clear.
2. When leaving the vehicle take the ignition keys to prevent misuse of
the window switches by
remaining occupants, especially
children.
Raise/lower
Each switch has two positions to raise the
window and two positions to lower the
window.
To lower a window, press the switch
downwards to the first position until the
desired window position is reached, then
release.
To raise a window, pull the switch
upwards to the first position until the
desired position is re ached, then release.
If the switches are held for longer than
6 seconds, for example, when attempting
to overcome frozen or jammed windows,
the window drive will be switched off for
a few seconds to protect the window
drive motors. The windows can be operated with the
key removed from the ignition switch
within 10 minutes of the vehicle being
stopped provided the driver’s or front
passenger’s door has not been opened.
If a rear door is opened the windows can
still be operated within the 10 minute
period.
One-touch operation
Each window has a ‘one-touch’ facility
enabling the occupant to fully open or
close the window in one quick
movement.
Press the switch briefly to the second
position to fully open the window in one
movement. Pull the swit
ch briefly to the
second position to fully close the window
in one movement. Window travel can be
stopped at any time by pressing the
switch again.

4-30 On the Road
Immobilising the rear windows
To immobilise the rear windows (and
operation of the front seat by a rear seat
passenger, when this feature is fitted),
press button (A) (see previous page
illustration). The LED in the button will
light up showing that the rear windows
cannot be operated by rear seat
occupants. Pressing the button again will
enable occupants to operate the rear
windows. See also Rear Seat
Adjustment on page 3 - 4.
Window Anti-trap Protection
Each electrically operated window has an
anti-trap protection feature.
If the upward movement of the window
detects an obstacle the anti-trap system
will immediately stop the window
closing, then move it downwards for a
short distance.
!WARNING:
If the battery is disconnected or
discharged the window anti-trap
feature is lost. When the battery is
reconnected or recharged the
window anti-trap system must be
reset. To reset the electrically operated
windows anti-trap system
• Fully close the window, hold the
switch in the close position for two
seconds and then release the switch.
Wait for two seconds, do not open
the window.
• Again, select the same window to close, holding the sw itch for a further
two seconds.
• Check to confirm the operation by opening the window and then use
one-touch operation to close the
window.
• Repeat for the remaining electrically operated windows.
To override the anti-trap protection
The anti-trap system will also stop the
window closing if a bl ockage or resistance
occurs e.g. in the wi ndow guide channels.
Typically this might be due to icing in
winter but could also be caused by
damage or mis-alignment of the guide
channels or seals. To override the anti-trap action:
• After the initial attempt to close the
window, operate the close switch a
second time.
• When the window has reversed from the blockage, operate the switch
(within 10 seconds) until the window
stops again (it will not reverse on the
third attempt).
• Immediately operate the close switch again. The window will now move up
a short distance with increased force
to override the blockage.
• Repeat the override action until the window has closed. Each time the
window stops, the switch must be
operated immediately to initiate
further override action.
If this procedure fails to move the
blockage, the anti-trap feature will be lost
and must be reset (see previous column)
after the blockage has been cleared.
Thermal overload
If the windows are repeatedly opened
and closed (e.g. by a child), a protection
system will deactivate window operation
for a short period to avoid overheating of
the window motors.
