Headlights Leveling (only with
Bi-Xenon Headlights) A correct headlights leveling is crucial
for the safety of the vehicle’s
occupants and of people in the street.
Moreover it is included in the road
regulation law.
In order to obtain the best visibility
conditions while driving with
headlights on, the headlight beam
must be properly leveled.
Headlights leveling must be adjusted
at every change of the weight and
position of the passengers and/or of
the load carried.
A heavy load will weigh the vehicle
down and, as a consequence, the light
beam will be raised. In this case it is
important to adjust the beam to a
correct level using the right regulator
located on the side of the light switch. The regulator has 3 different
positions:
0 One or two people on the front
seats.
1 Four or five people in the
vehicle.
2 Four or five people + load in
the trunk.
During the regulation, the different
positions (0, 1 and 2) are visualized on
the TFT display.
Dome Lights The front and rear part of the dome,
include each a central and two reading
lights.
The central light automatically turns
on when one of the doors is opened
and turns off when the door is closed
(timed switching off). The light may be switched on manually by pressing the
central button.
The reading lights are controlled by
the respective side buttons.
If they are turned on by pressing the
button, both central and reading lights
will stay on for about 10 minutes after
turning the engine off, and will then
turn off gradually.
When the exterior lights are switched
on, the two night LEDs fitted on the
side of the power buttons on the
overhead console will light up to
facilitate the use of the transmission
lever and the central console.Understanding the Vehicle

arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
• Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit : the
rain sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is in RUN position,
the vehicle is stationary and the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C). To resume, set the automatic
feature on the multifunction lever,
start the engine and drive or wait
until the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
• Wipe Inhibit with Transmission in
Neutral Position : the rain sensing
feature will not operate when the
ignition is placed in the RUN
position, the transmission shift lever
is in the N (Neutral) position and the
vehicle speed is less than 5 mph
(8 km/h). To resume, set the
multifunction lever to the automatic
function or move the shift lever out
of N (Neutral).
Headlights On with Windshield
Wipers When activating this function, the
headlights will light up approximately
10 seconds after the wipers acting on
the windshield are turned on if the
light switch is placed in “AUTO”
position. In addition, the headlights switch off when the wipers are turned
off (position “OFF”) if they were
previously turned by using this
function. Powering on Headlights with
wipers can be activated and
deactivated with the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.
Wiper Blade Maintenance When the wiper arms acting on the
windshield are in the rest position it is
not possible to check or replace the
blades (Service position) as they are
folded under the hood. To service the
blades (see paragraph “Wiper
Maintenance and Blades
Replacement” in chapter
“Maintenance Procedures” of section
“Maintenance and Care”) it is
necessary to shift the multifunction
lever to “OFF” and the ignition switch
to OFF position.
Shift the control lever within 15
seconds to the “MIST” position
(forward rotation of the end of the
multifunction control lever) and
release. The blades are brought in a
position enabling to open the wiper
arms and change the blades. It is possible to use the “MIST” position
for a maximum of 3 times within two
minutes, corresponding to different
three blades positions on the
windshield. When completed, bring
the ignition switch in RUN : the arms
will reposition. If necessary move the
multifunction lever to other required
operating positions.
WARNING!
Operate or service the windshield
wiper blades without deactivating the
wipers (“OFF” position), leaving the
ignition switch in RUN can be
dangerous for the operator since the
rain sensor may suddenly activate the
wipers. Always use “Service” position
for any intervention on the windshield
wiper blades.Understanding the Vehicle
