The Body Computer manages the dimmed instrument lighting with the display.

If the side lights are deactivated, the display is 100% lit up and the brightness cannot be adjusted (dimmed).

There are 8 different possible settings for the brightness of the panel and the interior of the passenger compartment in general produced using the "+" and "-" buttons in the panel in the centre of the dashboard, left side.

The lighting brightness cannot be reduced to zero.
