GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
DAYTIME RUNNING
LIGHTS (DRL)
40) 41)
Some countries require moving vehicles
to have their lights on (running lights)
during the daytime.
The running lights turn on automatically
when the vehicle starts moving.
They turn off when the parking brake is
operated or the selector lever is shifted
to the P position (versions with
automatic transmission).
HIGH BEAMS
The headlights switch between high
and low beams by moving the lever
forward or backward.
When the headlight high-beams are on,
the
warning light is turned on.
FLASH TO PASS
Can be used when the ignition is
switched ON.
To flash the headlights, pull the lever
fully towards you (the headlight switch
does not need to be on).
The
warning light in the instrument
cluster illuminates simultaneously.
The lever will return to the normal
position when released.

TURN SIGNALS
The ignition must be switched ON to
use the turn and lane-change signals.
Move the signal lever down (for a left
turn) or up (for a right turn) to the stop
position. The signal will self-cancel after
the turn is completed.
If the indicator light continues to flash
after a turn, manually return the lever to
its original position.
The turn signal indicators (green)
in the instrument cluster flash
according to the operation of the turn
signal lever to show which signal is
working.
If an indicator light stays on without
flashing or if it flashes abnormally, one
of the turn signal bulbs may be burned
out.
LANE CHANGE SIGNALS
Move the lever halfway toward the
direction of the lane change (until the
indicator flashes) and hold it there. It will
return to the off position when released.
Three-flash turn signal
After releasing the turn signal lever, the
turn signal indicator flashes three times.
The operation can be cancelled by
moving the lever in the direction
opposite to which it was operated.
Adaptive Front Lighting
System (AFS)
(where provided)
The adaptive front lighting system (AFS)
automatically adjusts the headlight
beams to the left or right in conjunction
with the operation of the steering wheel
after the headlights have been turned
on.
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to “Warning lights on instrument
panel” paragraph in “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter.
NOTE
Headlights are equipped which do
not blind drivers approaching in the
opposite direction no matter what side
of the road you must drive your vehicle
(left-hand or right-hand traffic).
Therefore, it is not necessary to adjust
the optical axis of the headlights when
switching temporarily to driving on the
opposite side of the road (left-hand or
right-hand traffic).
The Adaptive Front Lighting System
(AFS) function can be switched to
operable/ inoperable using the
personalisation function. Refer to
“Personalisation features” paragraph in
“Knowing the instrument panel”
chapter.
WARNING
40)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving in countries where it is
compulsory to have lights on during the
day; where it is not compulsory, the use of
daytime running lights is permitted.
41)Daytime running lights cannot replace
dipped beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The use of
daytime running lights is governed by the
highway code of the country in which you
are driving. Comply with legal
requirements.
