Flashing; Direction Indicators - Alfa Romeo 147 Owner's Manual

When the dipped beam headlights and the
fog lamps are switched on, the outer light
control unit (integrated in the Body Com-
puter) works according to the following log-
ics:
– turning on the main beams, the dipped
beams turn off while the fog lamps stay on,
when restoring the starting condition at
dipped beam setting;
or
– turning on the main beams, the fog
lamps turn off and then turn on again au-
tomatically as the main beams are switched
off.
Therefore, in the event of Body Comput-
er replacement, the outer light operating log-
ic may be different.
