space in front of the vehicle for a preset
period of time.
Activation fig. 68
With the ignition key at OFFor removed,
pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
within 2 minutes from when the engine
is turned off.
At each single movement of the stalk, the
staying on of the lights is extended by 30
seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds;
then the lights are switched off automati-
cally. Each time the stalk is operated, the in-
strument panel warning light 3will turn
on together with a message on the display
(see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”) until the function is active. The
warning light comes on the first time the
stalk is operated and will stay on up to au-
tomatic function deactivation. Each oper-
ation of the stalk will extend just the lights
switching on time.
Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel for more than 2 seconds.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS
SENSOR (daylight sensor)
(where provided)
It detects the changes of the external light
intensity of the vehicle according to the
light sensitivity set: the greater the sensi-
tivity is, the smaller the amount of exter-
nal light necessary to control the switch-
ing-on of the external headlights will be.
The daylight sensor sensitivity can be ad-
justed by the “Set-up menu” of the display.Activation fig. 69
Turn the knurled ring to
2A:in this way,
the automatic activation of the side/tail-
lights and dipped beam headlights is si-
multaneously enabled according to the ex-
ternal luminosity.
Deactivation
As a result of the sensor control, the
dipped beam headlights will switch off and,
after about 10 seconds, sidelights will
switch off too.
The sensor is not able to detect the fog
presence, lights shall therefore be
switched on manually.

POWER SUPPLY AND
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
The vehicle is fitted with a safety switch that
in the event of a crash comes into opera-
tion by cutting off fuel and turning off the en-
gine as a consequence. When the inertial
switch cuts in, fuel supply is stopped and haz-
ard and sidelights will turn on, for turning
off press button A. An additional safety
switch is also fitted, that in the event of a
crash comes into operation by cutting off the
power supply. These two safety switches
therefore prevent dangerous fuel leaks due
to fuel line cracking and sparks or electric dis-
charges due to damaging or malfunctioning
of the electric components of the vehicle in
the event of a crash.
IMPORTANT After a crash, remember to
remove the key from the ignition device to
prevent battery run-down.
If, after a crash no fuel leaks or damages to
the electric devices (e.g. headlights) are
found and the vehicle can be started again,
reset the fuel cut-off switch and the power
supply cut-off switch (where provided). Fol-
low the instructions given below.
fig. 82F0N0047mfig. 84F0N0048m
If, after a crash, you smell fu-
el or see leaks from the fuel
system, do not reset the switches to
avoid fire risk.
