š Side lights

Daytime running lights function
(front lights only)
The daytime running lights come on automatically with no action on stalk 1 when the engine is started, and they go off once the engine is switched off.
When driving on the left in a lefthand drive vehicle (or vice versa), drivers must re-adjust their lights throughout their stay (see “Adjusting headlight beams” in Section 1).
Before driving at night, check that the electrical equipment is operating correctly and adjust the headlight beams (if your vehicle is not carrying its normal load). As a general precaution, check that the lights are not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow or objects being transported).
k Dipped beam headlights
Manual operation
Turn the ring 2 until the symbol is opposite mark 3. This indicator light on the instrument panel comes on.
Automatic operation
(depending on vehicle)
Turn ring 2 until the AUTO symbol is opposite mark 3: with the engine running, the dipped beam headlights switch on or off automatically depending on the brightness of the light outside, without any action on stalk 1.
Switching off the dipped beam headlights
- Manually, move ring 2 to position 0;
- automatically, with ring 2 in position AUTO, the dipped beam headlights go out upon stopping the engine, the driver’s door is opened or the vehicle is locked. In this case, the next time the engine is started, the dipped beam headlights will be switched back on, taking into account the exterior light level, without moving the stalk 1.
NB: If the main beam headlights or the fog lights are on, the lights are not switched off automatically.
“See-me-home lighting” function
This function allows you to briefly switch on the dipped beam headlights (to provide light when opening a gate, etc.).
With the engine and lights switched off, and the ring 2 in position 0, pull the stalk 1 towards you: the dipped beam headlights come on for about thirty seconds. To increase this duration, you may pull the stalk up to four times (total time restricted to approximately two minutes). The message “ _ _ _” along with the time the lights will be on for is displayed on the instrument panel to confirm this action.
To switch off the lights before they go out automatically, turn ring 2 to any position, then return it to position 0.
á Main beam headlights
With the engine running and the dipped beam headlights lit, push stalk 1. This indicator light on the instrument panel comes on.
To return to the dipped headlight position, pull the stalk 1 towards you again.
Switching off the main beam headlights
Manually, move ring 2 to position 0.
Lights-on reminder buzzer
A warning beep sounds when the driver’s door is opened to warn you that the lights are still on.
If the vehicle is parked on the hard shoulder with the tailgate open, the rear lights may be obscured. You should make other road users aware of your vehicle by using a warning triangle or other equipment specified by the road traffic regulations of the country you are driving in.
g Front fog lights
Turn centre ring 4 on the stalk 1 until the symbol faces mark 5, then release it.
Operation of the fog lights depends on the exterior lighting position selected, and an indicator light will light up on the instrument panel.
Cornering lights function
Whenever the dipped beam headlights are on and under certain conditions (at speed, the steering wheel at an angle, in forward gear, the indicator lights on, etc.), when taking a corner one of the front fog lights will come on to light the inside of the bend.
Rear fog light
Turn centre ring 4 on the stalk until the symbol faces mark 5, then release it.
Operation of the fog lights depends on the exterior lighting selected, and an indicator light will light up on the instrument panel.
To avoid inconveniencing other road users, remember to switch off the rear fog light when it is no longer needed.
Switching off the lights
Turn ring 4 again until mark 5 is opposite the symbol for the fog light you wish to switch off. The corresponding indicator light goes out on the instrument panel.
The front and rear fog lights switch off when the exterior lights are switched off.
When driving in fog or snow, or when transporting objects which are higher than the roof, the headlights do not come on automatically.
Switching on the fog lights remains the responsibility of the driver: the indicator lights on the instrument panel inform you whether the fog lights are lit (indicator light on) or not (indicator light not on).
If the vehicle is parked on the hard shoulder with the tailgate open, the rear lights may be obscured. You should make other road users aware of your vehicle by using a warning triangle or other equipment specified by the road traffic regulations of the country you are driving in.
