– automatically, the lights will go out
when the engine is switched off, the
driver’s door is opened or the vehicle

position of the ring 2.
Note: if the fog lights are lit, the lights
are not switched off automatically.

on for approximately thirty seconds.

the stalk up to four times (total time re-
stricted to two minutes). The message

headlights move to light the inside of
the bend.
