^ Switching between main and dipped beams is only possible with the light switch in position 2. Applies to all alternatives.
^ Fuse 35 has been removed from cars on markets where daytime running lights are not used. Program alternatives 1 and 2.
^ While the engine is being started, dipped beam is turned off. This is irrespective of the program alternative if the light switch is in position 0 or 1, but for safety reasons it is maximized to 20 seconds.


Alternative 1
When the light switch (10) is in position 0 or 1, none of the main lighting should be active.

In position 0, none of the parking lights should be active. (Germany + other markets).
