special note:
– If the dipped beam headlights are
manually switched on and if the light
is sufficient, the directional head -
lights will remain fixed;
– If the lights come on automatically
when cornering, the directional
headlights will start working from the
next time the vehicle corners;
– When the dipped beam headlights
are switched on with the engine
running and the vehicle stationary,
the lights move to reinitialise them -
selves. If not, there is a system fault.
switching off the lights
There are two possibilities:
– Manually, move ring 2 to position 0;
– automatically, the lights will go out
when the engine is switched off, the
driver’s door is opened or the vehicle
is locked. In this case, the next time
the engine is started the lights will be
switched back on according to the
position of the ring 2.
Note: if the fog lights are lit, the lights
are not switched off automatically.
“see-me-home lighting”
function

tion allows you to briefly switch on the
dipped beam headlights (to provide
light when opening a gate, etc.).
With the engine and lights off, and
ring 2 in position 0, pull stalk 1 towards
you: the dipped beam headlights come
on for approximately thirty seconds.
To increase this duration, you may pull
the stalk up to four times (total time re-
stricted to two minutes). Depending
on the vehicle, the message “See-me-
home _ _ _” accompanied by the light-
ing time is displayed on the instrument
panel to confirm the action.
To switch off the lights before they go
out automatically, turn ring 2 to any po-
sition, then return it to position 0.
Directional headlights
Depending on the vehicle, with the
dipped beam headlights on and under
certain conditions (speed, steering
wheel angle, forwards gear selected,
etc.) when cornering, the dipped beam
headlights move to light the inside of
the bend.
Operating faults
Depending on the vehicle, when the
message “Check lighting ” appears on
the instrument panel along with the
© warning light, this indicates that
there is a lighting fault.
Consult an approved dealer.
