Automatic switching on of the lights
If your vehicle is fi tted
with a brightness
sensor, the side lights
and dipped beam
headlamps switch on
automatically if the
light is poor, or during operation of the
windscreen wipers. They switch off
as soon as the light becomes bright
enough or the windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime lights.
In foggy weather or in snow,
the brightness sensor can
detect suffi cient light. As a
consequence, the lights will not come
on automatically.
Do not cover the brightness
sensor located in the centre of the
fascia. It is used for the automatic
switching on of the lights and for the
automatic wipers.
Activation
Turn the ring to the AUTO position.
The activation of this function is
accompanied by a message on the
display.
Deactivation
Turn the ring forwards or rearwards.
The deactivation of this function is
accompanied by a message on the
display.
The function is deactivated temporarily
when you use the manual lights stalk.
If the brightness sensor does not
function correctly , the lights come on
accompanied by the service warning
light, an audible signal and a message
on the display.
