Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Switching lights on and off
The lights work only with the ignition on, unless otherwise stated.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in
» Fig. 23
on page 40. The symbols which mark the switch
positions are identical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
■
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other
oncoming traffic. Therefore always switch on the low beam when it is dark or
if visibility is poor.
The activation of the lights should only be undertaken in accordance with
■
national legal requirements.
The driver is always responsible for the correct settings and use of the
■
lights.

Using the system
Note
An audible warning signal will sound if the light switch is in the or posi-
■
tion, the ignition key is removed and the driver's door is opened. The audible
warning signal is switched off by means of the door contact when the driver's
door is closed (ignition off), however, the side lights remain on to illuminate the
parked vehicle if necessary.
In vehicles with separate lights for daylight driving lights (in the bumper below
■
the main headlights) these lights also serve as side lights.
In the event of cool or humid weather conditions, the headlights can be misted

up from inside. The temperature difference between interior and external area of
41
the headlight lenses is decisive. When the driving lights are switched on, the light
outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although the headlight
41
lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. It also concerns reverse light
42
and turn signal lights. This mist has no influence on the life of the lighting system.
