"Follow me home" lamps:
When you activate the headlamp 

flasher after parking the vehicle and 
switching off the lamps, the low beams 
will come on for a brief period. You may 
also have this function deactivated if 
you wish.

<

Whenever you open the driver's door, 
after having turned the ignition key to 
position 0, you will hear a buzzing 
sound for a few seconds to remind you 
that the lamps have not been switched 
off. 

On vehicles with alphanumeric Check 
Control

:

The reminder is given through the 
Check Control. 

The headlamps are automatically 
switched on for daylight driving at 
ignition key position 2. 

When the switch is set to this 
position the system automati-
cally activates or deactivates the 

low beams in response to changes in 
ambient light ( in tunnels, at dusk, etc.) 
as well as rain and snow.

The vehicle's external lamps 
remain on constantly when you 

switch on the fog lamps after the head-
lamps have come on automatically.< 

Automatic headlamp control 
cannot serve as a substitute for 

the driver's judgement in determining 
when the vehicle lamps should be 
switched on. For example, the sensors 
are not able to detect fog.  To avoid 
safety risks, you should respond to 
these kinds of low-visibility situations 
by switching the headlamps on manu-
ally.< 

You can have the sensitivity of 
your vehicle's automatic head-

lamp control adjusted.<
