Exterior Lighting
Master Lighting Rotary Switch 
Positions
• OFF.
• Side (parking) lights.
• Headlights.
• Autolamps/exit delay.
!WARNING:
It is an offence in certain countries to 
obscure front and rear lights, 
direction indicators and reflectors. The exterior lights ar
e controlled by the 
left-hand column stalk switch.
The rotary collar on the stalk has three 
positions for turning th e exterior lights on 
or off and positions for autolamps/exit 
delay. These are:
OFF – All exterior lights OFF (except 
vehicles provided with daylight running 
lights).
Sidelights – Switches on front sidelights, 
tail, number plate an d any other marker 
lights required by local legislation. 
When the external lights are ON the 
instruments will also be lit.
Headlights – With the ignition in 
position ‘II’, this position switches on 
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 
can be flashed at any time when the 
switch is pulled and will remain ON for 
as long as the switch is held. The second position is to switch main 
beam headlights ON. With the ignition in 
position ‘II’, first select dipped beam 
lights, and then push the column light 
switch away from the steering wheel.
The blue warning light on the instrument 
cluster and main be
am headlights will 
come ON.
To turn main beam OFF, pull the column 
switch towards the steering wheel to 
return to dipped beam.
Note: If dipped beam is switched OFF 
with main beam stil l activated, both 
dipped and main beam will be 
extinguished. Both dipped and main 
beam will illuminate if  dipped is turned on 
again.
Autolamps – A light sensor control, 
mounted on the front of the fascia, 
monitors exterior light levels and 
automatically switches the sidelights and 
dipped headlights ON or OFF.
The ignition switch must be in 
position ‘II’ and AUTO selected on the 
stalk switch for full automatic light 
operation.
When light fades towards dusk, 
the sidelights and headlights will switch 
ON automatically  and the sidelight 
warning light in the instrument cluster 
will illuminate. 

4-24 On the Road
At dawn, as light increases, the sidelights 
and headlights switch OFF automatically.
Do not cover the sensor and keep the 
windscreen clean. Obstructing the light in 
this area of the sensor may lead to 
unwanted operation of the sidelights and 
headlights.
Note:If the windscreen wipers are 
switched on in auto, slow or fast modes 
for more than 20 seconds then the 
exterior lights will be switched on, 
if selected to autolamps mode. The lights 
will switch off 2 minutes after the wipers 
are switched off or will go off straight 
away if autolamps is deselected or the 
ignition is turned off.
Exit delay
When parking the car at night, if the 
headlights were switched on then they 
will remain on for a  short period after the 
key has been removed  from the ignition 
switch. This is to give a clearly lit area for 
occupants leaving the vehicle.
If the light switch rotary collar is in the 
AUTO position there will be no exit delay 
and the headlights will  turn off when the 
light switch is turned off. Three settings on the rotary collar set the 
time that the lights will remain on after 
the key is removed from the ignition 
switch;
•10seconds.
•30seconds.
•2minutes.
Note:
The key must not be in the ignition 
switch for this feature to operate.
The message centre shows the delay 
setting or when this feature is turned off.
Headlight convenience
When approaching the vehicle, 
the sidelights and headlights can be 
switched on by pressing the headlight 
button on the re mote transmitter.
The lights will come on for 25 seconds or 
can be switched off by pressing the 
remote transmitte r headlight button 
again. Daylight running lights
In certain countries it is a legal 
requirement for the lights to be on during 
the hours of daylight.
With the rotary co
llar in the OFF 
position, dipped headlights, sidelights, 
tail lights, number plate lights and side 
marker lights will switch on automatically 
with the following conditions:
• The ignition is turned to position ‘II’.
• The vehicle gear se lector out of park.
• The parkbrake is not applied  (released).

Park Distance Control
Caution: It remains the driver’s 
responsibility to detect obstacles and 
estimate the car’s distance from 
them. Some overhanging objects, 
barriers, thin obstructions or painted 
surfaces which could possibly cause 
damage to the vehicle may not be 
detected by the system. Always be 
vigilant when reversing.
Park distance control is always 
automatically switched on when the 
ignition is turned on.
Caution:
1. If, for example, you are driving into a confined space such as a 
home garage, the outer sensors 
will detect the side walls and after 
3 seconds will switch the tone off. 
However, as movement 
continues, the inner sensors will 
eventually detect the rear wall 
and will start the tone again.
2. The sensors are not active when  the gear selector is in neutral, 
therefore, take care if moving the 
vehicle as the tone will not be 
heard.
3. Do not clean the sensors with  abrasive or sharp objects. Note:
1. For reliable operation, the sensors in 
the front (if fitted) and rear bumpers 
should be kept free from frost, ice and 
grime.
2. When using a high pressure spray the  sensors should only be sprayed briefly 
and at least 8 inches (20 cm) distance 
from the sensors.
3. The front parking aid may sound  spurious tones if it detects a frequency 
tone using the same band as the 
sensors.
Rear Park Distance Control
When reverse gear is selected and 
ignition is on, rear park distance control 
automatically provides an audible 
proximity warning (to the nearest 
detected obstacle) when reversing the 
vehicle if obstacles are detected within 
the operating range, shown in the 
illustration above (between 
approximately 24 inches [60 cm] ( A) and 
63 inches [160 cm] ( B).
