Lighting and visibility
4
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
The lamps, with the exception of the
sidelamps, switch o automatically after a
maximum duration of 30 minutes to avoid
draining the battery.
Switching o of the lamps when the
ignition is switched o
When the ignition is switched o, all of the
lamps turn o immediately, except for dipped
beam headlamps if automatic guide-me-home
lighting is activated.
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.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious
eye injury!

Automatic illumination of

position and if a low level of exterior brightness
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
