Standing lamps

When the vehicle is parked on the
street the standing lamps (right or left
side parking lamps) can be turned on,
making the vehicle more visible to
passing vehicles.
The standing lamps can only be oper­
ated with steering lock in position 0
or 1.
Notes:
With the key removed and a front
door open, a warning.buzzer sounds
if the vehicle's exterior lamps (except
standing lamps) are not switched off.
Fog lamps will operate together with
the parking lamps, low beam head­
lamps and high beam headlamps.
Fog lamps are turned off automatical­
ly when the exterior lamp switch is
returned to the off-position.
Fog lamps should only be used in
conjunction with low beam head­
lamps. Consult your state Motor Vehi­
cle Regulations regarding fog lamp
operation.
