Lighting and visibility  
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary  
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps  
are on.  
They will go off automatically after a period  
of time that depends on the state of charge of  
the battery (entering energy economy mode).  
They provide the following functions:  
Three flashes  
– Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk at  
position "AUTO" with adequate light level).  
– Sidelamps (lighting control stalk "AUTO"  
position with low light levels or "Sidelamps only”  
or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").  
►ꢀ Press briefly upwards or downwards, without  
going beyond the point of resistance; the direction  
indicators will flash 3 times.  
Parking lamps  
Vehicle side marking by lighting the sidelamps on  
the traffic side only.  
►ꢀ Depending on version, within one minute  
of switching off the ignition, move the lighting  
control stalk up or down, depending which side  
the traffic is on (for example, when parking on the  
left, moving the lighting control stalk upwards  
turns on the right-hand sidelamps).  
The LEDs are brighter when operating as  
daytime running lamps.  
In some weather conditions (e.g. low  
temperature or humidity), the presence of  
misting on the internal surface of the glass of  
the headlamps and rear lamps is normal; it  
disappears after the lamps have been on for a  
few minutes.  
Direction indicators  
Never look too closely at the luminous  
beam of “Full LED” headlamps: risk of  
serious eye injury.  
This is confirmed by an audible signal and the  
lighting of the corresponding direction indicator  
lamp on the instrument panel.  
►ꢀ To switch off the parking lamps, return the  
lighting control stalk to the central position.  
Travelling abroad  
Vehicles equipped with halogen  
headlamps:  
Automatic illumination of  
headlamps  
►ꢀ Left or right: lower or raise the lighting control  
stalk, beyond the point of resistance.  
If planning to use your vehicle in a country  
that drives on the other side of the road, the  
headlamp dipped beams must be adjusted to  
avoid dazzling oncoming drivers. Contact a  
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
If you forget to cancel the direction  
indicators for more than 20 seconds, the  
volume of the audible signal will increase if the  
speed is above 50 mph (80 km/h).  
When the ring is at the “AUTO" position and  
a low level of ambient light is detected by the  
rain/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 may also come on if  
rain is detected, at the same time as automatic  
operation of the windscreen wipers.  
Daytime running lamps/  
sidelamps  
The front and rear lamps light up automatically  
when the engine starts.
