Daytime running lamps/

Sidelamps

These LED lamps at the front and rear of the

They perform the following functions:

– Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk

at position "0" or "AUTO" with adequate ambient

light).

Three ﬂashes

► Press brieﬂy upwards or downwards, without

going beyond the point of resistance; the

direction indicators will ﬂash 3 times.

In some weather conditions (e.g. low

temperature or humidity), misting on the

internal surface of the glass of the headlamps

and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear

after the lamps have been on for a few

minutes.

Parking lamps

(Depending on version)

Vehicle side marking by lighting the sidelamps

on the traﬃc side only.

► Within one minute after switching oﬀ the

ignition, operate the lighting control stalk

upwards or downwards, depending on the side

of the traﬃc (e.g. when parking on the right, push

the lighting control stalk down to light up on the

left).

This is conﬁrmed by an audible signal and the

lighting of the corresponding direction indicator

lamp on the instrument panel.

– Sidelamps (lighting control stalk at position

"AUTO" with low ambient light or "Sidelamps

only" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").

Never look too closely at the light beam

of LED technology lamps - risk of serious

eye injury!
