Interior lighting
The interior lighting consists of a front roof
light, two front reading lights, footfall lighting
and courtesy lighting in the doors. The light
switches are located in the roof console.
The cabin lighting comes on
• When a door is opened and the ignition is
OFF.
• When the remote control is removed from
the ignition switch.
The lighting goes out
• When the car is locked.
• When the ignition is turned on.
• Approx. 20 seconds after closing all
doors.
The lights are dimmed out gradually.
If a door is left open with the ignition OFF,
the interior lighting goes out automatically
after 5 minutes so as not to drain the
battery.
The interior lighting can be switched off
completely.

This is canceled when the ignition switch is
turned to position ON or when the car is
