Automatic illumination of
headlamps
Automatic "guide-me-home"
lighting
When a low level of ambient light
is detected by a sunshine sensor,
the number plate lamps, sidelamps
and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without
any action on the part of the driver.
They can also come on if rain is de-
tected, at the same time as auto-
matic operation of the windscreen
wipers.
When the automatic illumination of
headlamps function is activated,
under low ambient light the dipped
beams headlamps come on au-
tomatically when the ignition is
switched off.
As soon as the brightness returns
to a sufficient level or after the wind-
screen wipers are switched off, the
lamps are switched off automatically.
