door is open, an audible warning signal is

heard in the following cases: this will remind

you to turn the light off.

In vehicles that do not have the correspond-

ing menu, this function can be deactivated in

a specialised workshop.

●

Always give warning when you are going

to change lane, overtake or when turning,

activating the turn signal in good time.

●

The main beam headlights can only be

switched on if the dipped beam headlights

are already on.

●

As soon as you have finished changing

lane, overtaking or turning, switch the turn

signal off.

Parking light 

●

In cold or damp weather conditions, the

headlights, tail lights and turn signals may

mist up inside temporarily. This is normal

and in no way effects the useful life of the

vehicle lighting system.

The parking lights will only work with the igni-

tion off. If said light is on, an audible warning

will sound while the driver door is open.

WARNING

Incorrect use of the headlights may cause

accidents and serious injury, as the main

beam may distract or dazzle other drivers.

●

Switch the ignition off.

●

The parking light does not activate auto-

matically if the left- or right-hand turn sig-

nal is left on and the ignition is disconnec-

ted.

Move the turn signal lever up or down.

When the parking light is switched on, the

front side light and the tail light on the corre-

sponding side of the vehicle turn on.

Note

●

When you turn the ignition off without

Main beam assist (Light Assist)

having turned the turn signals off, an

acoustic signal sounds while the driver

door is open. This is intended as a reminder

to switch off the turn signal, unless you wish

to leave the parking light on.

Parking light on both sides

The main beam assist automatically prevents

glare from vehicles moving in the opposite di-

rection or ahead in the same direction. In ad-

dition, the main beam assist detects illumina-

ted areas and disconnects the main beam

headlight when passing, e.g. by populated

areas.

If the convenience turn signals are oper-

ating (three flashes) and the other conven-

ience turn signals are switched on, the ac-

tive part stops flashing and only flashes

once in the new part selected.

In doing so, only the side lights of both head-

lights light up, and additionally the tail lights

will do so partially.
