tion).
The ignition device is fitted with an elec-
tronic safety system that, in the event the

normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precau-
tions are needed though. Avoid pro-
longed and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as
metal buckles and Velcro strips which,
by applying a high pressure on the fab-
ric in a small area, could cause some
threads to break, thereby damaging
the upholstery.

Courtesy light timing
On certain versions, to facilitate getting
in/out of the car at night or in poorly-lit ar-
eas, two timed modes have been provided.TIMING WHEN GETTING INTO THE CARThe courtesy lights switch on as follows:❒
for about 10 seconds when unlocking
the front doors;
❒
for about 3 minutes when opening one
of the side doors;
❒
for about 10 seconds when closing the
doors.
The timed period is interrupted when the
ignition is turned to MAR.
TIMING WHEN GETTING OUT OF THE CARAfter removing the key from the ignition,
the courtesy lights switch on as follows:❒
within 2 minutes from turning the en-
gine off for about 10 seconds;
❒
when opening one of the side doors for
about 3 minutes;
❒
when one of the doors is closed for
a period of about 10 seconds.
The timed period stops automatically
when the doors are locked. CAUTION Before getting out of the car,
make sure both switches are in the cen-
tral position; when the doors are closed,
the lights switch off to prevent the battery
from running down.
In any case, if the switch is left in the ‘per-
manently on’ position, the courtesy light
goes off automatically 15 minutes after the
engine switching off.
