Switching off the lighting
when switching off the ignition
When the ignition is switched off, all
of the lamps switch off immediately,
except for the dipped beam headlamps
if automatic guide-me-home lighting is
activated.
The temporary illumination of the dipped beam
headlamps after the vehicle's ignition has been
switched off makes the driver's exit easier
when the light is poor.

Switching on




With the ignition off, "flash" the headlamps
using the lighting stalk.


A further "headlamp flash" switches the
function off.



Switching off

If the lighting is switched on manually after
switching off the ignition, there is an audible
signal when a front door is opened to warn
the driver that they have forgotten to switch
off the vehicle's lighting, with the ignition off.
They switch off automatically after a period
which depends on the state of charge of the
battery (entry to energy economy mode).




















Parking lamps

Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of
the sidelamps on the traffic side only.



Within one minute of switching off the
ignition, operate the lighting control stalk
up or down depending on the traffic side
(for example: when parking on the left;
lighting control stalk upwards; the right
hand sidelamps are on).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and
illumination of the corresponding direction
indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel.
To switch off the parking lamps, return the
lighting control stalk to the central position.

When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate
lamps, sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
are switched on automatically, without any
action on the part of the driver. They can also
come on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.
