EXTERIOR LIGHTING
CONTROLS
Control stalk for the selection and
control of the various front and rear
lamps providing the vehicle's lighting.

Main lighting

The various front and rear lamps of
the vehicle are designed to adapt
the driver's visibility progressively in
relation to the climatic conditions:


- sidelamps, to be seen,

- dipped beam headlamps to see
without dazzling other drivers,

- main beam headlamps to see
clearly when the road is clear.



Additional lighting

Other lamps are fi tted to fulfi l the re-
quirements of particular driving con-
ditions:


- a rear foglamp to be seen from a
distance,

- front foglamps for even better
forward vision,

- directional headlamps for im-
proved visibility when cornering,

- daytime running lamps to be
seen during the day.



Settings

Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available depending
on options:


- daytime running lamps,

-
automatic illumination of headlamps,


- directional lighting,

- guide-me-home lighting.

Model with rear
foglamps only
Model with front and rear
foglamps





In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, use of the front foglamps
and the rear foglamps is prohibited.
In these situations, the power of
their beams may dazzle other dri-
vers. They should only be used in
fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is
your responsibility to switch on the
foglamps and dipped headlamps
manually as the sunshine sensor
may detect suffi cient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
and rear foglamps when they are
no longer needed.

Lighting left on
When a front door is opened with
the ignition off and in manual light-
ing mode, an audible signal warns
the driver if the vehicle's lighting is
still on.
In this case, switching off the light-
ing stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped
headlamps remain on, they will
switch off automatically after thirty
minutes to prevent discharging of
the battery.

Linked with the automatic
"Guide-me-home" lighting
The link with the automatic illumi-
nation of headlamps provides the
"guide-me-home" lighting with the
following additional options:


- selection of the duration of lighting
for 15, 30 or 60 seconds in the ve-
hicle parameters on the instrument
panel screen confi guration menu,

- automatic activation of "guide-
me-home" lighting when auto-
matic illumination of headlamps
is in operation.


Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the sun-
shine sensor, the lighting comes
on and a message appears in the
instrument panel screen, accompa-
nied by an audible signal.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sen-
sor may detect suffi cient light.
Therefore, the lighting will not
come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sen-
sor, linked with the rain sensor and
located in the centre of the wind-
screen behind the rear view mirror;
the associated functions would no
longer operate.
