The exterior lights are controlled by a
rotary light switch mounted on the fascia
and by the left-hand column switch.
The rotary switch has six positions.
These are:
OFF (A) – All exterior lights OFF (except
vehicles provided with daylight running
lights).
Sidelights (B) – Switches on front
sidelights, tail, number plate and any
other marker lights required by local
legislation. When the external lights are
ON the instruments will also be lit.
Headlights (C) – With the ignition in
position ‘II’, this position switches on
dipped headlights in addition to the lights
switched on in position (B).
The left-hand column stalk switch has
two pull positions. Pulling and releasing
the switch to the first position causes the
main beam to flash. The main beam can
be flashed with the ignition in position ‘II’
and will remain ON for as long as the
switch is held.
The second position is to switch main
beam headlights ON. With the ignition in
position ‘II’, first select dipped beam
lights (C), and then pull the column light
switch, past the first position, fully
towards the steering wheel.
The blue warning light on the instrument
cluster and main beam headlights will
come ON.
To turn main beam OFF, pull the column
switch again to the main beam position.
Note: If dipped beam is switched OFF,
with main beam still activated both
dipped and main beam will be
extinguished. Both dipped and main beam
will illuminate if dipped is turned on
again. The ignition must be in position ‘II’
for the flash to operate.
Headlight convenience
The main beam lights are turned on for
30 seconds when the headlight
convenience button on the key
transmitter is pressed.
Note: The key must not be in the ignition
switch for this feature to operate.
The main beam lights can be turned off
before the 30 second delay by pressing
the headlight convenience button on the
key transmitter or by turning the ignition
to position ‘II’.
