Headlight control This function allows you to reduce current consumption from the battery by automatically managing headlight switching-off. At Key-On, the high beam and low beam lights are off. As soon as engine is started, low beams will be automatically turned on; from now on, "standard" operation will be active, i.e. whenever button (3) is pressed, it will be possible to switch from low beams to high beams with button (3) in position (V) or "FLASH" with button (3) in position (O). If engine is not started upon Key-On, lights can nevertheless be activated by pressing LH high/low beam switch: button (3) in position (V). When button is pressed the "first" time, low beams will be turned on; from now on this button can be used to turn high beams on or off: if engine is not started within 60 seconds, low and high beams will be turned Off. Light control 3 V O Fig 67 If the headlight was turned on before starting the engine with the procedure described above, the headlight turns off automatically when starting the vehicle and will turn on again when the engine has been completely started. 120
