On the road 4-19

Auto (D) – A light sensor control,

mounted on the front of the interior

mirror fixing cover, monitors exterior

light levels and automatically switches the

sidelights and dipped headlights ON or

OFF.
The ignition switch must be in position ‘II’

for automatic light operation.
When light fades to the non-adjustable,

pre-set level, the sidelights and headlights

will switch ON automatically.
As light increases to the pre-set level, the

sidelights and headlights switch OFF

automatically.
Do not cover the sensor and keep the

windscreen clean. Obstructing the light in

this area may lead to unwanted operation

of the sidelights and headlights.

Front fog lights (E)
With the switch in sidelight or dip

position, pull the switch to its first

position to turn on the front fog lights.

Pushing the switch in or turning it to OFF

will turn off the front fog lights.
The front fog lights should only be used

when visibility is severely restricted by

fog.
Front fog lights cannot be used with main

beam headlights. If main beam headlights

are switched on when the front fog lights

are on, the front fog lights will be

switched off.
The front fog lights will not turn on if they

are selected when main beam headlights

are on.

Rear fog lights (F)
With the switch in any position except

OFF, pull the switch to its second

position to turn on the rear fog lights.

This will also turn on the front fog lights

unless main beam is selected. Pushing the

switch in or turning it to OFF will turn off

the rear fog lights.

Daylight running lights
In certain countries it is a legal

requirement for the lights to be on during

the hours of daylight.
With the rotary light switch in the OFF

position (A), dipped headlights, sidelights,

tail, number plate lights and, (where

fitted), side marker lights will switch on

automatically with the following

conditions:
• the ignition is turned to position ‘II’,
• the vehicle gear selector out of park

(automatic transmission only)

• the handbrake not applied (released).
