the headlamp control's knob.
Knob for headlamp control in the position for
position/parking lamps.
Turn the knob to the position for
(num-
ber plate lighting is switched on at the same
time).
If the car's electrical system is in key position
II or the engine is running then the daytime
running lights switch on instead of the front
position/parking lamps.
When it is dark outside and the tailgate is

switched on in order to alert traffic behind.
This takes place irrespective of what position
the knob is in or what key position the car's
electrical system is in.
