. After switching off the ignition, the low
beam is switched off automatically and only the side lights come on. The parking
light also goes out after the ignition key is removed.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in

fig. 24 . The symbols which mark the switch positions are
identical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on - risk of accident! The side lights are
not bright enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen
by other oncoming traffic. In this case, always switch on the low beam when it
is dark or if visibility is poor.
Note
● If the light switch is in the position

, the ignition key is removed and the
driver's door is open, an acoustic warning signal will sound. The acoustic warning
signal is switched off over the door contact when the driver's door is closed (igni-
tion off). The vehicle can be parked with the side lights on.
●
If the light switch is in the position

and the ignition key is removed, the
lights will go out.
●
If the car is parked for a lengthy period, we recommend switching off all lights,
or leaving only the parking lights switched on.
● The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in accord-
ance with the legal requirements.
● If a fault occurs in the light switch, the low beam comes on automatically
● In the event of cool or humid weather conditions, the headlights can be misted
up from inside.
– The temperature difference between interior and external area of the head-
light lenses is decisive.
–
When the driving lights are switched on, the light outlet surfaces are free
from mist after a short period. The headlight lenses can possibly mist up at the
border areas.
–
It also concerns reverse light and turn signal lights.
– This mist has no influence on the life of the lighting system.
