Automatic adjustment of
the Full LED technology
headlamps
This system automatically adjusts the height of
the headlamp beams according to the load in the
vehicle.
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
The system places the headlamp beams in the
lowest position.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not touch the LED or Full
LED technology headlamps - risk of
electrocution!
Automatic illumination of
lamps
With the lighting control stalk in the "AUTO"
position and if a low level of exterior brightness
is detected by the rain/sunshine sensor, the
number plate lamps, sidelamps and dipped
beam headlamps are switched on automatically,
without any action on the part of the driver. They
may also come on if rain is detected, at the same
time as automatic operation of the windscreen
wipers.
Lighting and visibility
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the rain/
sunshine sensor, the vehicle's lamps
come on and this warning lamp is displayed on
the instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and/or the display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor
located at the top centre of the
windscreen behind the interior rear view
mirror; the associated functions would no
longer be controlled.
In fog or snow, the rain/sunshine sensor
may detect sufficient light. For this
reason, the lighting will not come on
automatically.
The inner surface of the windscreen may
become misted up and affect the proper
operation of the rain/sunshine sensor.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
