Twilight Sensor; Direction Indicators - Alfa Romeo 8C Spider Owner's Manual

TWILIGHT SENSOR

The twilight sensor is comprised of two sensors:
a global sensor, capable of measuring the light
intensity above, and a directional sensor, which
measures the light intensity in the vehicle's
travelling direction, enabling it to recognise
tunnels and driveways. The sensing range of
the twilight sensor can be adjusted through the
instrument panel, by selecting the Setup mode.
In the event of a sensor failure, the system will
turn on the low beams and the position lights,
regardless of the light outside, and a failure
message will appear on the instrument panel
display.
The failure signal remains active until the switch
A is turned to AUTO.
In this case, we recommend that you deactivate
the automatic system and turn on the external
lights manually if necessary; as soon as possible,
contact an Authorised Service Centre of the
Manufacturer's Network.
