Lighting controls

Stalk for selecting and switching the vehicle's
front and rear exterior lamps.
Main lighting

The various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the lighting progressively
in relation to the climatic conditions and so
ensure the best visibility for the driver:


- sidelamps, to be seen,

- dipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,

- main beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.



Additional lighting

Other lamps are provided to fulfil the
requirements of particular driving conditions:


- a rear foglamp to be seen from a distance,

- front foglamps for even better visibility,

- daytime running lamps to be seen during
the day.

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.

Other lighting functions are also available:


- automatic illumination of
headlamps,

- guide-me-home lighting,

- welcome lighting.




Travelling abroad

If using your vehicle in a country that
drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light. The lighting will not come on
automatically.

associated functions will no longer be
controlled.







Automatic switching off

When the lighting control stalk is at "dipped or
main beam headlamps", if the ignition switch
is at "LOCK" or "ACC" or if the key has been
removed from the ignition switch, the lamps
switch off automatically when the driver's
door is opened
.







Daytime running lamps

Daytime lighting which comes on automatically
when the engine is started making the vehicle
more visible to other users.

This function is assured by special lamps.
The lighting control stalk must be placed in
position "0"
or "AUTO "
(day mode).








Automatic illumination of headlamps

The sidelamps and the dipped beam headlamps come
on automatically, without any action on the part of the
driver, if a low level of exterior light is detected or if the
wipers are switched on.
When the light returns to a sufficient level or the wipers
are switched off, the lighting is switched off automatically.
The sensor is located at the base of the windscreen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to
adjust the sensitivity of the sensor.
