Daytime running lights - DRL*
To save fuel, daytime running lights (Daytime
Running Light) can be selected during the day
instead of the more energy-intensive dipped
beam. The daytime running lights mounted in
the spoiler use bright, low-energy diode tech-
nology.
Position
A
automatically gives DRL daytime run-
ning lights during the day.
With the light switch in position A , the daytime
running lights are activated automatically dur-
ing the day. This is regulated by a light sensor
which switches from daytime running lights to
dipped beam off the main headlamps at dusk
or when the daylight becomes too weak.
NOTE
To achieve minimal energy consumption,
the rear lights are also switched off when
switching automatically from dipped beam
to DRLs.
WARNING
This system help to save energy - it cannot
determine in all situations when daylight is
too weak or sufficiently strong, e.g. in mist
and rain.
The driver is always responsible for ensuring
that the car is driven with its lights in a cor-
rect state and in accordance with applicable
traffic regulations.
Brake light
The brake light automatically comes on during
braking. For information on the Emergency
brake lights and automatic hazard warning
flashers, see page 168.
