Association with the automatic illumination of headlamps provides "guide-me-home"
lighting with the following additional op-
tions:


- selection of the lighting duration to 15,
30 or 60 seconds in the functions that
can be set in the vehicle confi gura-
tion menu (except in the case of the
monochrome screen A, for which the
duration is set: 60 seconds),

- automatic activation of "guide-me-
home" lighting when automatic illumi-
nation of headlamps is in operation.


Operating fault In fog or snow, the sunshine sen-
sor may detect suffi cient light.
Therefore, the lighting will not
come on automatically.

sor, coupled with the rain sensor
and located in the centre of the

accompanied by an audible signal.
