Switching off of the lamps when the
ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lamps turn off instantly, except when
automatic guide-me-home lighting is
activated.
Switching on the lighting after the
ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, set
the ring to "AUTO", then to the desired
position.
On opening the driver's door, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the
lighting is on.
It switches off automatically after a period
of time that depends on the state of charge
in battery (entering energy economy mode).
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.
Never look too closely at the luminous
beam of "Full LED" headlamps: risk of
serious eye injury. 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 oncoming drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Automatic illumination of
headlamps
When the ring is at the "AUTO" position and
a low level of ambient light is detected by a
sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps,
side
lamps 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.
Operating fault

qualified workshop.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor,
combined with the rain sensor and located
at the top centre of the windscreen behind
the rear view mirror; the associated
functions would no longer be controlled. In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
