the driver or passenger door. The windows are closed first,

switched on.
• Due to the amount of dazzle it causes, the rear fog light should only be
switched on when the visibility is very poor (e.g. in some E.U. countries, 50
metres).
The electrical system of the factory fitted tow bar* is wired up so
that when towing a trailer fitted with rear fog lights, the rear fog
light on the towing vehicle are automatically switched off.
