headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. In good or rainy weather, by both day and
night, use of the front foglamps and the
rear foglamps are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only be

In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped headlamps manually as the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
