Lighting and visibility
Switching off
The manual guide-me lighting goes off
automatically at the end of a given period of time.
The system may suffer interference or not
work correctly:
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
-
under poor visibility conditions (snow,
heavy rain, etc.),
Automatic
-
if the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a sticker, etc.) in front of
the camera,
When the automatic illumination of headlamps
function is activated (lighting control stalk
in the "AUTO" position), under low ambient
light the dipped beams headlamps come on
automatically when the ignition is switched off.
-
if the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:

Exterior welcome lighting
The remote operation of the lighting makes
your approach to the vehicle easier in poor
light. It is activated when the lighting control
stalk is in the "AUTO" position and the level of
light detected by the sunshine sensor is low.
Temporarily keeping the dipped beam
headlamps on after the vehicle's ignition has
been switched off makes the driver's exit easier
when the light is poor.
