Lighting When the headlamp switch is in the Autolamps position, the windshield wiper activated exterior lamps will turn on within 10 seconds when you switch the windshield wipers on. The exterior lamps will turn off approximately 60 seconds after you switch the windshield wipers off. This feature does not turn on the exterior lamps: • during a mist wipe • while the wipers are on to clear washer fluid during a wash condition • if the wipers are in automatic or intermittent modes. Note: If you have autolamps and autowipers switched on the low beam headlamps will turn on automatically when the windshield wipers operate continuously. Note: You may have to manually switch the headlamps on in severe weather conditions. Note: If you have autolamps switched on you can only switch the high beam headlamps on once the system has turned the headlamps on. Press it repeatedly or press it and hold it until the desired level is reached. Note: If you disconnect the battery or it loses charge the instrument lighting will return to its brightest setting. HEADLAMP EXIT DELAY After you switch the ignition off, you can switch the headlamps on by pulling the direction indicator lever toward you. You will hear a short tone. The headlamps will switch off automatically after three minutes with any door open or 30 seconds after the last door has been closed. You can cancel this feature by pulling the direction indicator toward you again or switching the ignition on. DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (IF EQUIPPED) WARNING Always remember to switch the headlamps on in low light situations or during inclement weather. The system does not turn the headlamps or rear lamps on and may not provide adequate lighting. Failure to switch the headlamps on under these conditions may result in a crash. The system turns the headlamps on when the outside ambient light level is high. To switch the system on: 1. Switch the ignition on. 2. Turn the lighting control switch to the off or autolamp position. INSTRUMENT LIGHTING DIMMER Vehicles With Halogen Headlamps The system will turn the low beam headlamps on at a reduced intensity when the outside ambient light level is high. 62 E132712 Tourneo Connect/Transit Connect (CHC) Canada/United States of America
