Side lights/low-beam
(dipped) headlights
Side lights
In this switch position the lights are
on all round the car. You can use the
side lights for parking. There is the
additional option of switching on the lights
on the side nearest the road when parked,
see page 94.
Low-beam (dipped) headlights
If you switch off the ignition while
the low-beam headlights are
switched on, only the parking lights
remain lit.
Headlight courtesy delay feature:
If you press the headlight flasher after
parking the car, with the lights switched off,
the low-beam headlights come on for
about 40 seconds. You can choose to have
this period extended, or have the function
de-activated.
<
LIGHTS ON warning
If you switch off the ignition with the lights
switched on, a buzzer sounds for a few
seconds as a reminder when the driver's
door is opened, and a message appears in
the Check Control if the lights are not
switched off
.
Daytime driving lights
*
If desired, the light switch can remain in the
low-beam headlights position: when the
ignition is turned off, the car's outside lights
go out.
Please comply with local legislation
concerning the use of daytime driving
lights.
The side lights can be switched on in the
normal way when required, as described
under Side lights.
You can have the daytime dipped
headlight setting adjusted on your
car.
<
Automatic driving lights control
*
In this switch position, the low-
beam headlights are switched on or
off automatically depending on
ambient light conditions, e.g. in tunnels,
twilight, and in rain or snow. When the low-
beam headlights are on, the green indicator
light next to the symbol is lit.
The outside lights remain switched on
if you in addition switch on the fog
lights after the lights have come on auto-
matically.
<
The driving lights control function
is no substitute for your individual
judgment of when it is necessary to switch
on the lights. The sensors are for instance
unable to recognise fog. In such situations,
switch on the lights manually to avoid any
safety risk.
<
You can have the sensitivity of the
driving lights control on your car
adjusted.
