62 Lights and Visibility
Rain lights
If you move the windshield wiper lever in the position slow wipe for more than 5
seconds, the side lights and low beam are automatically switched on. The light is
switched off when the windshield wiper lever is no longer than 4 minutes in the posi-
tion for slow or intermittent wipe.
If you switch on the windscreen wipe in the operation rain sensor* for longer than 10
seconds or in the operation permanent wipe (position 2 or 3)  page 73 switching on
for longer than 15 seconds, the side lights and low beam are switched on automati-
cally. The light switches off if the windscreen wipe is in operation rain sensor* for more
than 4 minutes or is not switched on in the operation permanent wipe.
WARNING
The automatic light control only operates as a support. The driver is not
released from his responsibility to inspect the light and if necessary to switch on
the light depending on the light conditions. The light sensor cannot detect for
example rain or snow. For these conditions we recommend to switch on the low
beam  !
Note

Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not impair its
function or put it out of operation.

The same principles as for using the automatic light control also apply to the light
which is switched on manually  page 60.
