When the lighting is switched oﬀ automatically

("AUTO" position) the foglamps and the dipped

beam headlamps remain on.

Switching on the foglamps is prohibited

in clear weather or in rain, both day and

night. In these situations, the power of their

beams may dazzle other drivers. They must

only be used in fog or falling snow (rules may

vary depending on country).

Switching oﬀ of the lamps when the

ignition is switched oﬀ

When the ignition is switched oﬀ, all of the

lamps turn oﬀ immediately, except for dipped

beam headlamps if automatic guide-me-home

lighting is activated.

With "Full LED" technology headlamps,

the range of the dipped beam headlamps is

automatically increased once the speed of the

vehicle is above 68 mph (110 km/h).

Illumination of the corresponding indicator

lamp on the instrument panel conﬁrms that the

selected lighting is on.

A fault with a lamp is signalled by the

permanent illumination of this warning

lamp, accompanied by the display of a message

and an audible signal.

"Foggy function"

With "Full LED" technology headlamps,

in order to limit the “whiteout” eﬀect when

driving in fog, the brightness of the dipped

beam headlamps is decreased automatically

when the rear foglamps are switched on.

Switching on the lamps after

switching oﬀ the ignition

If the driver's door is opened, a temporary

audible signal warns the driver that the lamps

are on.

Rear foglamps

They only work if the dipped or main

beam headlamps are on.

Lighting and visibility

They will go oﬀ automatically after a period

of time that depends on the level of charge in

the battery (entering energy economy mode).

Daytime running lamps/

Sidelamps

These LED lamps at the front and rear of the

vehicle light up automatically when the engine

starts.

They perform the following functions:

– Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk
