Lighting and visibility -> Automatic illumination of headlamps for Your Citroen C5 Suv Second Generation (2008-2017)

Lighting and visibility  
Automatic illumination of headlamps  
The sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are  
switched on automatically, without any action  
on the part of the driver, when a low level of  
external light is detected or in certain cases of  
activation of the windscreen wipers.  
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient  
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched  
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.  
Linked with the automatic Guide-  
me-home lighting  
The link with the automatic illumination of  
headlamps provides the guide-me-home  
lighting with the following additional options:  
Operating fault  
In the event of a fault with the sunshine sensor,  
the lighting comes on and a message appears  
in the instrument panel screen, accompanied  
by an audible signal.  
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
-
selection of the duration of lighting for 15,  
30 or 60 seconds in the vehicle parameters  
menu,  
-
automatic activation of the guide-me-home  
lighting when automatic illumination of  
headlamps is in operation.  
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor  
may detect sufficient light. Therefore,  
the lighting will not come on

linked with the rain sensor and located  
in the centre of the windscreen behind  
the rear view mirror; the associated  
functions would no longer operate.
