Visibility

Lighting left on audible signal
An audible signal when a front door is opened warns the driver that the vehicle's exterior lighting is on, with the ignition off and in manual lighting mode.
In this case, switching off the lighting stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dippedheadlamps remain on, the vehicle goes into "ECO" mode to avoid dischargingthe battery.

In some weather conditions (e.g. low temperature or humidity), the presence of misting on the internal sur face of theglass of the headlamps and rear lampsis normal; it disappears after the lamps have been on for a few minutes.

Daytime lighting, compulsory in cer tain
countries, which comes on automatically when
the engine is star ted making the vehicle more
visible to other road users.
Daytime running lamps

This function is assured:


- in countries where it is imposed byregulations, by illumination of the dippedbeam headlamps with the sidelamps and number plate lamps.

- for other countries where it is provided, by
the use of dedicated lamps.

This function can be activated or deactivated via the vehicleconfiguration menu.



The lighting goes off when you switchoff the ignition, but you can always switch it on again using the lightingcontrol stalk.
