KNOWING YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
IThe handbook that you are reading
simply and directly explains how it
is made and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see immediately what is
described here for yourself.DASHBOARD ................................. 8

INTERIOR LIGHTS
FRONT CEILING LIGHT
The lens A fig. 22 can have three
positions:
right side pressed: light always on;
left side pressed: light always off;
central position (neutral): the light
switches on and off when the doors are
opened or closed.
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the
car, make sure that the switch is in
the central position: ensure that lights
are off with doors closed in order to
avoid running the battery down.
On some versions, the lights switch on
and off only when the front driver side
door is opened or closed.

D: continuous fast operation.
E: temporary fast operation
(unstable position).The temporary fast function lasts as
long as you manually keep the stalk in
that position. The lever returns to
position A when it is released,
automatically stopping the windscreen
wipers.
WINDSCREEN WIPERS

positions fig. 24:
