AUTOMATIC LIGHTING
If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the side lights and dipped headlamps are
switched on automatically if the light is poor.
In fog or snow, the brightness sensor may
detect sufficient light. Therefore, the lights
will not be switched on automatically. If
necessary, you must switch on the dipped
headlamps manually.
They are switched off when the light returns
to a sufficient level.
Activation
Turn the ring to this position.
The lights are switched off
automatically when the ignition is
switched off.
Do not cover the brightness sensor at
the top centre of the windscreen.
FOLLOW ME HOME LIGHTING
Ignition off or key in the STOP position.
Within 2 minutes after switching off the
engine, position the ignition key in the STOP
position or remove it.
Pull the lights stalk towards the steering
wheel. The indicator light comes on
on the instrument panel.
Each action on the lights stalk,
pulled towards the steering
wheel, prolongs the follow me home
lighting by 30 seconds up to approximately
3 minutes. When this time has elapsed, the
lights are switched off automatically.
Deactivate this control by keeping the stalk
pulled towards the steering wheel for more
than 2 consecutive seconds.
If your vehicle is fitted with this function:
when you leave your vehicle, the side lights
and dipped headlamps remain on for
the selected duration (when leaving a car
park for example).
To set the sensitivity of the sensor,
refer to section 4 of the "Mode" part.

significantly reduce the charge of your
vehicle's battery.

Ventilation
Comfort value adjustment ring
The graduation ranges between:
- increasing of the interior ambient air temperature HI (High) which heats to a
maximum graduation of 32,
- cooling of the interior ambient air temperature LO (Low) which cools to a
graduation of 16.
Air distribution
Pressing lights the diode on the buttons
which distribute the air flow towards:
the windscreen and front side
window vents (demisting/de-icing
of the windows),
the central and side vents
(chest and face),
the vents in the front and rear
areas (feet).
The combination of buttons permits
improvement of air distribution.
Air flow
Successive presses of this button
increase (+) or reduce (-) the
force of the interior air flow.
Intake of exterior air/recirculation of interior air
When the diode is lit, the air
recirculates inside the passenger
compartment to prevent the entry of exterior
odours and smoke. This position should be
temporary.
When the ambient air comfort level has been
reached, pressing the button switches the
diode off and reopens the exterior air intake.
Pressing the AUTO button also restores
the intake of exterior air. Returning to this
position permits renewal of the air in the
passenger compartment and demisting.
Pressing the AUTO button again restores
the FULL AUTO function.
Rapid demisting/de-icing
Pressing this control permits
rapid clearing of the windows.
The diode is lit.
The system manages the air conditioning,
the flow and intake of air, the de-icing of
the rear screen and provides optimum
distribution of the air to the windscreen and
front side windows.
If your vehicle is fitted with additional
heating, please switch it off to guarantee
rapid and effective demisting/de-icing.
