Stalk Controls
Left Side Stalk
Turn Signals : Press up for a right turn, press
down for a left turn. Returns to the centre
position on completion of a manoeuvre.
Hold against spring pressure to show a lane
change.
Main and Dipped Beam : Pull forwards and
latch for main beam. Pull forwards again and

and release without latching, at any time
while the vehicle key is in the ignition
control, to flash main beam ON and OFF.

Right Side Stalk
Windscreen Wiper Control :
[1] : OFF.
[2] : Automatic Wipe.
[3] : Normal Speed Wipe.
[4] : Fast Wipe.
Demand Wipe: Pull the stalk forwards.
The windscreen wipers will return to their park position if the
ignition is set to OFF or the hood is unlatched, regardless of the right
stalk position.
Speed Sensitive Wipe : If the wipers are at fast wipe, when the
vehicle slows down (below 7 mph) the wipers will go to normal wipe
speed.
If the wipers are at normal speed when the vehicle slows down
(below 7 mph/h) the wipers will go to automatic wipe (position 2).
As soon as the vehicle speeds up (above 9 mph) the wipers will return
to their original setting.
Windscreen Wiper Delay Control :
Intermittent wipe time delay increases or
decreases in six steps (B). Sixth position gives
the shortest delay between wipes.
Automatic Rain Sensor Wiper Control :
Automatic rain sensor wiper control
increases or decreases the sensitivity in six
steps (B). Sixth position (where the arrow is
set to the bottom marker) gives the least
sensitivity.
Switching from OFF to automatic wiper results in a single wipe to
acknowledge that the wiper control is now automatic. Each time an
increase in sensitivity is made a single wipe acknowledges the
increase. No wipe occurs for a decrease.
If the automatic rain sensor wiper control is not functioning
correctly, check that the sensor located at the top of the windscreen
is clean and clear of debris or dirt.

Controls
Windscreen Washer Control : Press the
button (C) for more than one second to
operate the windscreen washers.
Operation continues until the button is
released. When released the washers stop
immediately but the wipers continue for a few strokes, ending with a
pause and then a final wipe.
If used during normal wiper operation, the wipers operate
continually irrespective of the washer operation.
Headlamp Washers : Headlamp washers will operate automatically,
once per journey (each ignition ON), if the windscreen washers are
operated and the headlamps are ON.
Vehicle Horn
To sound the horn press the centre
pad of the steering wheel at any of the
positions shown (A).
Master Lamp Switch
1. All external lamps OFF.
2. Side, side marker, rear and
registration plate lamps ON.
3. With the vehicle key at
position ‘II’ in the ignition
control, Headlamps ON, in
addition to the side, side
marker, rear and registration
plate lamps.
4. With the vehicle key at
position ‘II’ in the ignition
control, if ambient light fades
the side, side marker, rear and registration plate lamps and
headlamps will switch ON automatically. If ambient light then
increases, the side, side marker, rear and registration plate
lamps and headlamps automatically go OFF. Automatic wipers
are market specific.
A light sensor at the top of the windscreen monitors ambient light
levels for automatic lamps operation. Keep the windscreen clean and
make sure that the sensor is not obscured. Obstructing the light in this
area may lead to unwanted operation of the automatic lamps.
