Daytime running lamps
Daytime lighting, compulsory in certain
countries, which comes on automatically when
the engine is started making the vehicle more
visible to other users.
LED lamps
They come on when the engine is started.
Depending on the country of sale, they are
used for:
- daytime running lamps* in day mode and
sidelamps in night mode (they are brighter
when daytime running lamps),
or
- sidelamps in day and night mode.
* Function that can be set in the vehicle
configuration menu. This function is assured:
-
in countries where it is imposed by
regulations, by illumination of the dipped
beam headlamps with the sidelamps and
number plate lamps; this function cannot
be deactivated.
- for other countries where it is provided,
by the use of dedicated lamps (bulbs or
LEDs); this function can be activated or
deactivated via the vehicle configuration
menu.
The lighting control stalk must be placed in
the "0" or "AUTO" (day mode) position.
Deactivation of the daytime running lamps is
effective after operation of the lighting control
stalk or after the next engine start; activation is
effective immediately. The instruments and controls (instrument
panel, multifunction screen, air conditioning
control panel, ...) are not illuminated, except
in night mode with manual or automatic
illumination of headlamps.

headlamps on after the vehicle's ignition has
been switched off makes the driver's exit easier
when the light is poor.

F With the ignition off, "flash" the headlamps
using the lighting stalk.
F A further "headlamp flash" switches the
function off.

hand sidelamps are on).
Manual guide-me-home lighting is
also available from the remote control
lighting button (see the "Remote
control" section). This is confirmed by an audible signal and
illumination of the corresponding direction
indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel.

A. Model with light guide
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
The headlamps are fitted with
polycarbonate glass with a protective
coating:
F
do not clean them using a dr y
or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,
F use a sponge and soapy water or a
pH neutral product,
F when using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.
