MAIN BEAM HEADLIGHTS
With A ring in position 2pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
(stable position). The warning light
1on the instrument panel
will come on. To turn the lights off, pull the stalk again towards
the steering wheel (dipped beam headlights will stay on). It is
not possible to switch on the main beam headlights in fixed mode
if the automatic lighting control system is active.
FLASHINGS
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable position) re-
gardless of the position of A ring. The
1warning light will come
on in the instrument panel.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
Put the stalk in the stable position:
❍upward: activation of right direction indicator;
❍downward: activation of left direction indicator.
Lights
¥orÎwill flash on the instrument panel. The direction in-
dicators are switched off automatically when the steering wheel
is straightened.
“Lane change” function
If you want to signal that you are changing lane, hold the left stalk
in the unstable position for less than half a second. The direction
indicator on the selected side flashes five times and then switch-
es off automatically. IMPORTANT The sensor is unable to detect the presence of fog. Un-
der these circumstances, these lights are therefore turned on man-
ually.
When the lights are turned on by the sensor, the fog lights (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) and the rear fog lights may be
turned on. When the lights are automatically switched off, the front
and rear fog lights (if activated) are also switched off. The next
time the lights are switched on automatically, the fog lights must
be reactivated manually (if required).
With the sensor active, it is possible to flash the headlights but
the main beam headlights cannot be switched on. If you need to
turn these lights on, turn A ring fig. 40 to position
2and turn
the dipped beam headlights on.
When the lights have been activated automatically and are then
switched off by the sensor, the dipped beam headlights are switched
off first, followed by the side lights a few seconds later.
If the sensor is activated but is malfunctioning, the side lights and
dipped beam headlights are switched on independently of the out-
side light level and the sensor fault is indicated on the instrument
panel display. It is also possible to deactivate the sensor and switch
on these light.
