Dipped beam
When driving with the stalk switch's rotating ring
in the position, dipped beam is activated
automatically in weak daylight or darkness, when
the car's electrical system is in ignition position II
or when the car is running.
Stalk switch rotating ring in AUTO position.
With the stalk switch's rotating ring in
position, dipped beam is also activated automati-
cally if the rear fog lamp is activated.
Dipped beam is always switched on when the
rotating ring on the stalk switch is in position
when the car's electrical system is in igni-
tion position II or when the car is running.
Tunnel detection
The car detects when it is driven into a tunnel
and switches from daytime running lights to
dipped beam.
Note that the rotating ring in the left-hand stalk
switch must be in mode for tunnel detec-
tion to work.

Using main beam
Main beam is operated with the left-hand stalk
switch. Main beam is the car's strongest lighting
and should be used when driving in the dark for
better visibility, as long as it does not dazzle
other road users.

Main beam flash
