Note to owners in the U.S.: If you do not want Daytime Running Lights, this feature can be disconnected: switch off the engine and remove fuse No. 35 (see page 216). Note to owners in Canada: Daytime Running Lights must not be disconnected as they are a Canadian Federal legal requirement. Light switches IB3854 1 2 1 High beam signal 2 High/low beam switching Parking lights The parking lights can be switched on regardless of the position of the ignition switch. Do not use parking lights when driving. If the parking lights are on and the driver´s door is opened, a reminder to turn them off will sound. Note: The lighting switch must be in parking light or headlight position (low beam position only) to operate the fog lights (see page 76). Headlights The headlights come on automatically when the ignition is ON and go off when the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position. The parking lights, however, can be on when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position. High/low beam To switch between high and low beam, pull the control stalk fully towards you (position 2). When the high beam is on, the indicator on the main instrument panel will be illuminated. High beam flasher In cold and damp weather, the inside of the headlamp lens may temporarily mist up. This misting does not affect the function or service life of the light fitting. When the lamps are on, the mist will eventually disappear. The headlights come on to high beam when the stalk is pulled to the first spring-loaded position (position 1) and remain on until the stalk is released. IB4122
