Main lighting
The various front and rear lamps of the
vehicle are designed to adapt the driver's
visibility progressively in relation to the climatic
conditions:
- sidelamps, to be seen,
- dipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
- main beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are fitted to fulfil the requirements
of particular driving conditions:
- a rear foglamp to be seen from a distance,
- front foglamps for even better forward
vision,
- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,
- daytime running lamps to be seen during
the day.
Settings
Various automatic lighting control modes are
also available depending on options:
- daytime running lamps,
- automatic illumination of headlamps,
- directional lighting,
- guide-me-home lighting.
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.
