Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Switching lights on and off
DAY LIGHT function (Daylight driving light)
Fog lights
Rear fog light
Parking light
Headlamp beam adjustment 
Switches for the hazard warning light system
Turn signal and main beam lever
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in » Fig. 20. The symbols which mark the switch positions are
identical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright enough
to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other oncom-
ing traffic. Therefore always switch on the low beam when it is dark or if visi-
bility is poor.
CAUTION
The activation of the lights should only be undertaken in accordance with na-
■
tional legal requirements.
The driver is always responsible for the correct settings and use of the lights.

Using the system
Note
If the light switch is in the position , the ignition key is removed and the driv-
■
er's door is open, an acoustic warning signal will sound. The acoustic warning sig-
nal is switched off by means of the door contact when the driver's door is closed
(ignition off), however, the side lights remain on to illuminate the parked vehicle if
necessary.
The instruments are also illuminated when the side light or low beam light is
■
switched on.
In the event of cool or humid weather conditions, the headlights can be misted
■
32
up from inside. The temperature difference between interior and external area of
33
the headlight lenses is decisive. When the driving lights are switched on, the light
outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although the headlight
33
lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. It also concerns reverse light
33
and turn signal lights. This mist has no influence on the life of the lighting system.
