IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make
sure that the roof light bulbs are off; this will prevent
the battery from being drained once the doors are
closed. In any case, if a light is left on by mistake, the
roof light switches off automatically about 15
minutes after the engine has been switched off.
ROOF LIGHT TIMING
On certain versions, to facilitate getting into/out of
the car, especially at night or in poorly-lit areas,
two timed modes have been provided.
Timing when getting into the car
The roof lights switch on according to the following
modes:
❒ for about 10 seconds when the doors are
unlocked;
❒ for about 3 minutes when one of the doors is
opened;
❒ for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
The timed period is interrupted when the ignition
key is turned to MAR-ON.
The lights switch off in three ways:
❒ when all doors are closed, the 3-minute timer will
stop and a 10-second one will start. This timer will
stop when the key is turned to MAR-ON;
❒ when doors are locked (either with remote
control or with key on driver side door), the roof
light switches off;
❒ the interior lights are switched off in any case after
15 minutes to preserve battery charge.
Timing when getting out of the car
After removing the key from the ignition switch, the
roof lights switch on as follows:
❒ if the ignition key is removed within 3 minutes
from the engine stopping, the roof lights switch on
for 10 seconds;
❒ for about 3 minutes when one of the doors is
opened;
❒ for about 10 seconds when one of the doors is
closed.
The timing stops automatically when the doors are
locked.
