special note:
– If the dipped beam headlights are
1 manually switched on and if the light
is sufficient, the directional head-
lights will remain fixed;
– If the lights come on automatically
when cornering, the directional
headlights will start working from the
next time the vehicle corners;
– When the dipped beam headlights
are switched on with the engine
running and the vehicle stationary,
the lights move to reinitialise them-
selves. If not, there is a system fault.

switching off the lights

There are two possibilities:
– manually, move ring 2 to position 0;
– automatically, the lights will go out
when the engine is switched off, the
driver's door is opened or the vehicle
is locked. In this case, the next time
the engine is started the lights will be
switched back on according to the
position of the ring 2.
NB: if the fog lights are lit, the lights are
not switched off automatically.
warning
"see-me-home lighting"
function
This function allows you to briefly switch
on the dipped beam headlights (to pro-
vide light when opening a gate, etc.).
With the engine and lights off and
ring 2 in the 0 position, pull stalk 1 to-
wards you: the dipped beam headlights
light up for approximately thirty sec-
onds. To increase this duration, you
may pull the stalk up to four times (total
time restricted to two minutes). The
message "See-me-home _ _ _" along
with the times the lights will be on for
is displayed on the instrument panel to
confirm this action.
To switch off the lights before they go
out automatically, turn ring 2 to any po-
sition, then return it to position 0.
