OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The bonnet is opened by inserting the fin-
gers under the front edge and pressing up
the catch as shown in the picture.
Check that the bonnet locks properly when
closed.
The location of the bonnet when closed
can be adjusted if necessary by screwing
i n or out the rubber plugs underneath the
bonnet at the front end and on the mud-
guards below the windscreen.
1 6 Switch lever for turn indicators, dipped
headlights and headlight flasher
The switch lever on the left-hand side of
the steering column just below the steer-
i ng wheel controls the turn indicators, dip-
ped headlights and headlight flasher. The
switch has a so-called
"stop point" for
changing lanes. In other words, when
changing lanes or passing,
move the
switch up or down to the stop point and
hold it there with the hand. The re-
spective indicator should start blinking.
When the lever is released, it automatically
returns to neutral.
When making a turn,
move the lever past the stop point as far
as it can go. It will return to neutral when
the steering wheel straightens out the car
again. To switch from main beam to dipped
beam and vice versa, move the lever towards
1 0
the steering wheel and then release. Here
the lighting switch (2) should be pulled fully
out.
The lever is also used for flashing with
mainbeams when the headlights are not
switched on. The headlight flasher functions
by moving the lever towards the steering
wheel and it remains in function until the
l ever is released.
1 7 Instrument panel
light switch
Turning the knob clockwise or anti-clock-
wise increases or dims the lighting for the
i nstruments.
