ACCESS TO MENU SCREEN
After the “Initial check”, it is possible to access the menu screen pressing the button
Q.
To surf the menu press buttons +or –.
IMPORTANT If after entering the menu no setting/adjustment is performed within 60 seconds, the system exits the
menu automatically and returns to previously displayed screen.
In this case the last selected but not confirmed setting (through button
Q) is not stored and therefore the
operation shall be repeated.
When the car is running, it is possible to access only the reduced menu (for setting “Speed limit” and “Daylight
sensor automatic headlights”).
When the car is stationary access to the whole menu is enabled.
The following diagram shows the cases described.
Q= Press “MODE” button for less than two seconds

With this function it is possible to adjust the light sensor sensitivity according to 3 levels (level 1 = min. level, level 2
= average level, level 3 = max. level); the higher the sensitivity is, the lower is the external light intensity required to
switch on the lights. This operation can be performed also with the car moving. The car is delivered with this setting
on level “2”. To set the light level required, proceed as follows:

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS SENSOR (daylight sensor)
(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 necessary to control the switching-on of the exterior
headlights. The daylight sensor sensitivity can be adjusted with the “Set-
up menu” of “Reconfigurable multifunction display”.
Activation
Turn the knurled ring to
2A: in this way, the automatic activation of the
side/taillights and dipped beam headlights is simultaneously enabled
according to the external luminosity.
When the daylight sensor is on, the display shows the preset sensitivity
level. During displaying, the sensitivity level can be adjusted using buttons
+and –.
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.
If during automatic light activation,
main beam headlights have been switched on (manually), they will go off
at automatic light switching off.
IMPORTANT The light sensor is not able to detect the fog presence,
lights shall therefore be switched on manually.
