VISIBILITY
In fog or snow, the sunshine
sensor may detect suffi cient
light. Therefore, the lamps will
not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sen-
sor, linked with the rain sensor
and located in the centre of the
windscreen behind the rear view
mirror; the associated functions
would no longer be controlled.

Linked with the Guide-me-home
lighting
Association with the automatic illumina-
tion of headlamps provides the guide-me-
home lighting with the following additional
options:


- automatic activation of guide-me-
home lighting when automatic illu-
mination of headlamps is switched
on (in the vehicle parameters of the
multifunction screen confi guration
menu),

-
selection of the duration of maintaining
of the lighting for 15, 30 or 60 seconds
in the vehicle parameters of the mul-
tifunction screen confi guration menu
(except for monochrome screen A

where this is preset).



Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction
of the sunshine sensor, the
lamps come on, this warn-
ing lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message ap-
pears in the multifunction screen, ac-
companied by an audible signal.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
