  Headlamp beam 
 You are advised to adjust the height of the  
headlamp beams in accordance with the 
load in your vehicle.   
 This function can only be accessed in 
the main beam headlamps and dipped 
headlamps position.  Press these controls, located 
on the fascia panel, several 
times in succession to adjust the 
headlamps.
  Fog lamps 
 The controls are located on the fascia panel  
control pad.  
  Front and rear fog lamps 
 The fog lamps should only be used in  
fog or when snow is falling. 
 In clear weather or in rain, both day and 
night, lit rear fog lamps dazzle and are 
prohibited. 
 Do not forget to switch them off when they 
are no longer necessary.  
  Guide-me-home lighting 
 The temporary maintaining of the dipped  
headlamps, after switching off the vehicle's 
ignition, makes the driver's exit easier when 
the light is poor and lights the space in front 
of the vehicle.  
  
Activation   
 With the ignition key in the   STOP  position 
or removed, pull the lighting stalk towards  
the steering wheel within 2 minutes after 
switching off the engine. 
 Each time the control is operated, the 
duration for which the lamps will remain 
on is extended by 30 seconds, up to a 
maximum of 210 seconds. Once this period 
of time has elapsed, the lamps switch off 
automatically.  
  
Deactivation   
 Pull the lighting stalk towards the steering  
wheel for more than 2 seconds.  
 The front fog lamps operate with 
the side lights and the dipped 
headlamps.  
 The rear fog lamps operate with  
the dipped headlamps. 
 Press one of these controls to switch on the 
lights.   The warning lamp comes on, 
accompanied by a message 
on the display, the first time 
the control is operated and 
remains on until the function is deactivated 
automatically.    An indicator light on the display 
indicates the adjustment position 
selected (0, 1, 2, 3).
