The device can work only when the igni-
tion key is on MAR.
The right lever fig. 74 can take five dif-
ferent positions:
A windscreen wiper off
B intermittent.
With the lever in position B, turn the
knurled ring F to select one of four dif-
ferent speeds for the intermittent opera-
tion mode:
,
= very slow intermittence
-- = slow intermittence
--- = mean intermittence
---- = fast intermittence
When the automatic light sensor is acti-
vated, the multifunctional display shows
the pre-set sensor sensitivity level. On this
screen it is possible to adjust the sensi-
tivity level using the buttons + and – (see
fig. 73).
Deactivation
The main beam headlights will go out fol-
lowed by the side/tail lights after approx-
imately 10 seconds, when the sensor is de-
activated.
If the beam headlights are enabled (man-
ually by the driver) during automatic light-
ing, the beam lights go off automatically
along with the lights.
IMPORTANT The sensor cannot detect
the presence of fog. So, in foggy condi-
tions, switch the lights on manually.
