clearly when the road is clear.
Additional lighting

ments of particular driving conditions:
- a rear foglamp to be seen from a
distance,
- front foglamps for even better
forward vision,
- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,
- daytime running lamps to be
seen during the day.

Model with rear foglamp only
Model with front and rear
foglamps
In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, use of the front foglamps
and the rear foglamp is prohibited.
In these situations, the power of
their beams may dazzle other dri-
vers. They should only be used in
fog or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is
your responsibility to switch on the
foglamps and dipped beam head-
lamps manually as the sunshine
sensor may detect suffi cient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
foglamps and the rear foglamp
when they are no longer necessary.
Switching off the lamps when
the ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except
for the dipped beam headlamps if
guide-me-home lighting is activated.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the pres-
ence of misting on the internal sur-
face of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal; it disap-
pears after the lamps have been on
for a few minutes.
Switching on the lamps after
the ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate
ring A
to the "0"
position - lamps off,
then to the desired position.
On opening the driver's door a
temporary audible signal warns the
driver that the lighting is on.
The lamps, with the exception of
the sidelamps, switch off automati-
cally after a period that depends on
the state of charge of the battery
(entering energy economy mode).
