OPERATION OF LIGHTS

All the controls for operating the lighting system are located on the steering column switch unit. The user should adjust the main switch (ring nut) to switch on the side lights and the left lever for the main beam/dipped headlamps (for both the

stable position and flashing).

The fog lights are switched on by pressing the special button in the centre switch panel.

with the side lights on, the dipped/main beam headlamps can also be switched on. If the fog lights are activated in the following conditions: the body computer switches off the dipped headlamps to prevent the excessive build up of heat in the light

cluster. If the flasher is activated with the main beam headlamps with the fog lights on, then the dipped headlamps are switched off because this manoeuvre is timed to last a max. of 5 secs. Therefore even if the lever is operated for longer than

this, the light is not operated for longer than the time planned.

For further details on the operation of the side lights, main beam/dipped headlamps, fog lights and direction indicators for changing lane, see 5550 ( Characteristic of working

principle 5550 Warning and manoeuvring indicators)and 5505A ( Characteristic of working principle 5505A Multi-function components).
