Follow me home:
this function makes it possible to achieve timed switch-on of the dimmers
(except for the licence plate lights) and the low-beam headlights immediately after the vehicle
has been switched off.
The function can be deactivated only within 2 minutes from the key-OFF, through the flashing
light control by means of the steering column stalk (“Follow me home” actuation).
“Follow me home” time increase: with both the dimmers and the low-beam headlights ON, the
trip computer will, every time the flashing lights are actuated, increase the lights ON time by
further 30 seconds, up to a maximum time of 210 seconds. The control for increasing the
lights ON time is valid only if less than 7 controls have been provided after the “Follow me
home” function has been last actuated (and is still ON).
Function deactivation: keeping the flashing light control for more than 2 seconds causes both
dimmers and the low-beam headlights to be switched off, the lights ON time to be reset, and
the counter for the 7 valid commands to be reset.
N.B. The deactivation control shall not necessarily provided within 2 minutes after key-OFF,
nor shall any of the 7 valid commands to increase the lights ON time. It will be valid, provided
that the “follow me home” function is ON.
After deactivation, the “Follow me home” function can be switched on again by actuating the
flashing light lever within 2 minutes after key-OFF.
Shifting from key-OFF to key-ON with the “Follow me home” function ON will cause the latter
to be switched off.
End of function: when the lights ON time expires, the “Follow me home” function will be
switched off: therefore, both the dimmers and the low-beam headlights will be switched off.
