Deactivation
If the function is activated by using the
left steering wheel stalk, the function
can be deactivated by holding the left
lever in "main beam flashing" mode for
longer than 2 seconds or by waiting for
the deactivation time shown on the
display.
The function cannot be deactivated if it
is activated using the light line. The
headlights will be switched off at the
end of the set time.
Turning the ignition device to the MAR
position will deactivate the function.
MAIN BEAM HEADLIGHTS
To activate the fixed main beam
headlights, with the ignition device in
MAR, push left lever A fig. 30 towards
the dashboard. The light switch should
be turned to AUTO with the dipped
beam headlights on, or it should be
turned to position
.
With main beam headlights on, the
warning light on the instrument
panel will come on at the same time.
Flashing the headlights
Pull the lever A fig. 30 towards you;
when released it returns automatically
to the stable, central position.
With main beam headlights on, the
warning light on the instrument
panel will come on at the same time.
Automatic main beam headlights
(where provided)
In order not to disturb other road users,
the main beam headlights are
automatically turned off when
approaching oncoming vehicles or
when following a vehicle travelling in the
same direction.
This function can be set using the
display Menu (see the instructions in the
"Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter); to activate
it, turn the light switch ring to AUTO.
To activate the function, push the lever
towards the instrument panel (it will
hold this position): the
light
illuminates on the instrument panel. If
the main beam headlights are on, the
light also illuminates. If the car is
stopped with the setting just described,
when it is restarted the automatic main
beam headlight function will have to be
set again: return the lever to the central
position and push it towards the
instrument panel as before.
When the speed is over 40 km/h and
the function is active, returning the lever
to the stable central position
deactivates the function and switches
the main beam headlights off.
When the speed is lower than 15 km/h
and the function is active, the system
automatically switches main beam
headlights off.
If the lever is pulled back to the central
stable position and then pushed
towards the instrument panel again and
left there, this is interpreted as a request
for permanent main beam headlights:
the light illuminates on the instrument
panel and the main beam headlights
remain on until the car's speed rises
back above 40 km/h. Above this speed,
the function is automatically reactivated
and the
light illuminates again on
the instrument panel.
To disable the function, turn the light
switch ring to the
position.
