Note
•
The turn signals only work when the ignition is switched on. The corre-
sponding warning lamp or flashes in the combi-instrument. The warning
lamp 20) flashes when the turn signals are operated, provided a trailer is
correctly attached and connected to the vehicle. If a turn signal bulb is defec-
tive, the warning lamp flashes at double speed. If the trailer turn signal bulbs
are damaged, warning lamp does not light up. You should have the bulbs
replaced.
•
Both warning lamps will flash at the same time when the hazard warning
lights are switched on.

If one turn signal fails, whether that of the vehicle or of the trailer, the
warning lamp will start flashing twice as fast.
•
The main beam headlights can only be switched on if the dipped beam
headlights are already on. The warning lamp
then comes on in the combi-
instrument.
•
The headlight flasher comes on for as long as you pull the lever – even if
no other lights are switched on. The warning lamp
then comes on in the
combi-instrument.
•
When the parking light is switched on, the front side light and the rear
light of the corresponding side of the vehicle stay lit. The parking lights will
only work if the key is removed from the ignition.
•
If the turn signal lever is left on after the key has been taken out of the
ignition lock, a buzzer sounds when the driver door is opened. This is a
reminder to switch off the turn signal, unless of course you wish to leave the
parking light on.
