Warning

The vehicle lighting system cannot in all situations determine when the daylight is too weak or not strong enough, e.g. when there is fog or rain.

The driver is always responsible for driving the vehicle with lighting that is safe for the traffic conditions and as specified by applicable traffic regulations.

Note

Exterior lighting such as headlights and taillights may develop temporary condensation on the inside of the lens. This is normal, and all exterior lighting is designed to resist this. Condensation is normally vented out of the lamp housing once the light has been lit for some period of time.

Exterior and interior lighting

Both exterior and interior lighting can be adjusted via the center display.
