Environmental lights are provided as part of the cour-
tesy light; these illuminate the vehicle when the dipped
beam headlights or side lights are switched on.
IMPORTANT The courtesy light in fig. 32, for some ver-
sions, is in central rear position (electric sun roof version).
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make sure that
both switches are in the central position: lights off with
doors closed in order to avoid draining the battery. In any
case, if the switch is left inadvertently in the On position,
the lights will turn off automatically 15 minutes after turn-
ing the engine off.
Courtesy light timing
To facilitate getting in/out of the car at night or with poor
lighting, 2 different timed switching on modes have been
provided.
Light timing when getting into the car
The courtesy lights will turn on as follows:
❍ for about 10 seconds when the front doors are un-
locked;
❍ for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍ for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
Timing is interrupted when the ignition key is turned to
MAR.
Light timing when getting out of the car
After removing the key from the ignition switch, the cour-
tesy lights will turn on as follows:
❍ within 2 minutes of turning the engine off, for about
10 seconds;
❍ for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍ for about 10 seconds when one of the doors is closed.
❍ in the event of the fuel cut-off system cutting in, the
lights remain on for approximately 15 minutes, after
which they go out automatically.
The lights go out immediately when the doors are locked
(unless the fuel cut-off system has cut in.).
