AUTOMATIC LIGHTING CONTROL
(AUTOLIGHT) (Dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This infrared LED sensor, combined with the rain
sensor and located on the windscreen, detects
the variations in outside brightness depending on
the light sensitivity set with the Setup Menu:
the greater the sensitivity, the less external light is
required to activate the exterior lights.
Activation
The dusk sensor activates when ring nut A fig. 34
is turned to
. In this way the side lights and
dipped headlights are activated automatically
according to the external light level.When the lights are turned on by the sensor, the
fog lights (for versions/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

be switched on. To activate these lights, turn
the ring nut A to

beam headlights.
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 irrespective of the outside light level
and the sensor failure is indicated on the
instrument panel display. It is also possible to
deactivate the sensor and switch on the side lights
and dipped beam headlights.
IMPORTANT The sensor is unable to detect the
presence of fog. Under these circumstances, these
lights are therefore turned on manually.
