SENSOR (daylight sensor) fig. 50
(where provided)
It detects the changes of the external light
intensity of the car according to the light
sensitivity set: greater is the sensitivity,
smaller is the amount of external light nec-
essary to control the switching-on of the
exterior headlights. The daylight sensor
sensitivity can be adjusted with the “Set-
up menu” on the display.Activation
Turn the knurled ring to
2A: in this way,
the automatic activation of the side/tail-
lights and dipped beam headlights are si-
multaneously enabled according to the ex-
ternal luminosity.
During the sensor operation lights can on-
ly be made flashing. Deactivation
As a result of the sensor control, the main
beam headlights will switch off and, after
around 10 seconds, sidelights will switch
off too.
The light sensor is not able to detect the
fog presence, lights shall therefore be
switched on manually.
