Instrument lighting
Turning the rotary switch  when the lights are switched on adjusts the bright-
ness of the instrument lighting » Fig.
The instruments are also illuminated when the side light, low or high beam light
is switched on.
WARNING
Always adjust the headlight beam to satisfy the following conditions.
The vehicle does not dazzle other road users, especially oncoming vehicles.
■
The beam range is sufficient for safe driving.
■
Note
We recommend you adjust the headlight beam when the low beam is switched
■
on.
The Bi-Xenon bulbs adapt automatically to the load and driving state of the ve-
■
hicle when the ignition is switched on and when driving. Vehicles that are equip-
ped with Bi-Xenon headlights do not have a manual headlight range adjustment
control.
The low beam continues to shine while the ignition is switched on and the light
■
switch is in the position  or . After switching off the ignition, the low beam
is switched off automatically and only the side lights come on. The side light goes
out after the ignition key is removed.
If there is a fault in the light switch, the low beam comes on automatically.
