Information concerning the function of the lights.
• The turn signal system only operates when the ignition is switched
on. The corresponding indicator light or in the instrument cluster also
flashes.
• The turn signal is automatically cancelled after negotiating a curve.
• The indicator light flashes at twice its normal rate if a bulb of the turn
signal light fails.
• The side light and rear light on the appropriate side of the vehicle are
switched on when the parking light is selected. The parking light function
only operates if the ignition is switched off.
• An acoustic warning signal will sound when the driver's door is opened
if the lever is not in the middle position after removing the ignition key. The
acoustic warning signal will stop just as soon as the driver's door is closed.
Caution
Use main beam or the headlight flasher only if this does not risk dazzling
other road users.
