Light control
Headlight control
This function allows you to reduce current
consumption from the battery, by automatically
managing headlight switching-off.
Upon Key-On, low and high beams are Off. By
starting the engine, the low beam will be
automatically activated; from now on, the "standard"
operation will become active, i.e. it will be possible to
switch from low to high beam by pressing button (3)
in position (V) or use the "FLASH" function by pressing
button (3) in position (O). If engine is not started upon
key-on, it is anyway possible to switch the lights on
by pushing the button on the LH high/low beam
switch: button (3) in position (V).
The low beam lights are turned on the first time it is
pressed; from this moment, the same button can be
used to switch on (and off) the high beam light: if the
engine is not started within 60 seconds, the low
beam and high beam that were turned on will turn off.

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.
