CONTROL (AUTOLIGHT)
(Dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This infrared LED sensor, combined
with the rain sensor and located on the
windscreen, detects the variations in
outside brightness depending on the
light sensitivity set with the Setup
Menu: the greater the sensitivity, the
less external light is required to activate
the exterior lights.
Activation
The dusk sensor activates when ring
nut A fig. 17 is turned to
. In this
way the side lights and dipped beam
headlights are activated automatically
according to the external light level.
When the lights are turned on by the
sensor, the fog lights (for versions/
markets, where provided) and the rear
fog lights may be turned on. When
the lights are automatically switched off,
the front and rear fog lights (if
activated) are also switched off. The
next time the lights are switched on
automatically, the fog lights must be
reactivated manually (if required).

level and the sensor failure is indicated
on the display. It is also possible to
deactivate the sensor and switch on the
side lights and dipped beam headlights.

REPLACING A BULB
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS
121) 122)51) 52)
Before replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
burnt bulbs must be replaced by
others of the same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
when a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before replacing a bulb. For the location
of fuses, refer to the paragraph
"Replacing fuses" in this chapter.
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after heavy rain or washing,
the surface of headlights or rear lights
may steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is
a natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside
of the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the
normal operation of lighting devices.
The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from
the centre of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.
