Manual guide-me-home lighting
Temporarily keeping the dipped beam
headlamps on after the vehicle's igni-
tion has been switched off makes the
driver's exit easier when the light is
poor.
Switching on
With the ignition off, "fl ash" the
headlamps using the lighting stalk.
A further "headlamp ash" switches
the function off.
Switching off
The manual guide-me-home lighting
switches off automatically after a set
time.
Daytime running lamps
Special daytime lighting, compulsory in
certain countries, which comes on au-
tomatically when the engine is started
so that the vehicle can be seen more
easily.
This function is provided by special
dedicated lamps.
The instruments and controls (instru-
ment panel, multifunction screen, air
conditioning control panel, ...) are not
lit, except on switching to the automatic
lighting mode or when the lighting is
switched on manually.
Programming
In countries in which this
function is not imposed by
regulations, you can acti-
vate or deactivate it via the
multifunction screen con-
guration menu.
In some climatic conditions (e.g.
low temperature or humidity), the
presence of misting on the internal
surface of the glass of the head-
lamps and rear lamps is normal;
it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.
In countries in which it is imposed by
regulations:
- by default, this function is activated,
- the sidelamps and the number plate
lamps are also switched on.
Automatic illumination of headlamps
The sidelamps and dipped beam head-
lamps are switched on automatically,
without any action on the part of the
driver, when a low level of external light
is detected or in certain cases of activa-
tion of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
suffi cient level or after the windscreen
wipers are switched off, the lamps are
switched off automatically.
Activation
Turn ring A to the "AUTO" position. The
automatic illumination of headlamps
is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction screen.
Deactivation
Turn ring A to a position other than
"AUTO" . Deactivation is accompanied
by a message on the multifunction
screen.
