The daytime lights are an alternative to
dipped beam headlights for driving
during the daytime. They are compliant in
countries where is it obligatory to have lights on
during the day and permitted in those where it is
not obligatory. Daytime running lights cannot
replace dipped headlights when driving at night
or through tunnels. The use of daytime running
lights is governed by the highway code of the
country in which you are driving. Comply with
legal requirements.
WARNING

The ignition key has to be in the MAR position for the
exterior lights to come on. The instrument panel and
the various dashboard controls will come on with the
external lights.

WINDOW WASHING
The right-hand lever fig. 38 controls windscreen
wiper/washer and heated rear window wiper/washer
operation.
WINDSCREEN WASHER/WIPER
This operates only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
The twist switch on the right stalk can be moved to four
different positions:
Owindscreen wiper off;
≤intermittent operation;
≥slow operation;
¥fast operation.
Move the stalk to position A (unstable) to limit
operation to the time for which the stalk is held in this
position.
When the stalk is moved, the light
3on the
instrument panel will light up and the corresponding
message will appear in the display (see “Warning lights
and messages”) as long as the function is on. The
warning light comes on when the lever is operated and
stays on until the function is automatically deactivated.
Each movement of the lever only increases the amount
of time the lights stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the lever pulled towards the steering wheel for
more than 2 seconds.
FRONT FOG LIGHTS WITH CORNERING
LIGHTS FUNCTION
When the dipped headlamps are on and the speed is
below 40 km/h, if the steering wheel rotation angle is
large or the direction indicators are on, a light
(incorporated in the fog light) will come on on the
relevant side to improve visibility at nightime. This
function can be activated/deactivated via the display
menu (see “Display functions” in this section).
