Lighting And Visibility; Lighting Controls - CITROËN C4 Handbook

Lighting and visibility

Lighting controls
System for selection and control of the various front and rear lamps providing the vehicle's lighting.
Main lighting
The various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the driver's visibility
progressively according to the climatic
conditions:
- sidelamps, to be seen,
- dipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
- main beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal surface of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.

Other lamps are provided to meet the
requirements of particular driving conditions:
- rear foglamps,
- front foglamps with cornering lighting,
- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,
- daytime running lamps to be more visible
during the day,
- guide-me-home and welcome lighting to
facilitate access to the vehicle,
- parking lamps as vehicle position markers.

Travelling abroad
Halogen and xenon headlamps
If planning to use your vehicle in a
country that drives on the other side of
the road, the headlamp dipped beams
must be adjusted to avoid dazzling on-
coming drivers.
