Peugeot Rifter 2018-2019 Owner's Manual Lighting and visibility Automatic headlamp dipping

63Lighting and visibility4Daytime running lamps / SidelampsThe front lamps light up automatically when the engine starts.They provide the following functions:–Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk in the "AUTO" position with adequate light level).–Sidelamps (lighting control stalk in the "AUTO" position with low light levels or "Sidelamps only” or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").The LEDs are brighter when operating as daytime running lamps.Parking lampsSide markers for the vehicle by illumination of the sidelamps on the traffic side only.►Depending on version, within one minute of switching off the ignition, operate the lighting control stalk up or down depending on the traffic side (for example: when parking on the left; lighting control stalk upwards; the right-hand sidelamps come on).This is confirmed by an audible signal and illumination of the corresponding direction indicator lamp in the instrument panel.To switch off the parking lamps, return the lighting control stalk to the central position.Guide-me-home lightingManualSwitching on/off►With the ignition off, "flash" the headlamps using the lighting control stalk to switch the function on or off.Manual guide-me-home lighting goes off automatically at the end of a given period of time.AutomaticWith the ring in the "AUTO" position, when the light is poor, the dipped beam headlamps come on automatically when the ignition is switched off.The activation, deactivation and duration of guide-me-home lighting are set in the vehicle configuration menu.Automatic exterior welcome lightingWith the "Automatic headlamp illumination" function activated, when the light is poor, the sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps come on automatically when the vehicle is unlocked.Activation, deactivation and the duration of the exterior welcome lighting are set in the vehicle configuration menu.Automatic headlamp dippingThis system automatically changes between dipped and main beam headlamps according to the brightness and driving conditions, using a camera located at the top of the windscreen.This system is a driving aid.The driver remains responsible for the vehicle's lighting, its correct use for the prevailing conditions of light, visibility and traffic, and for observation of driving and vehicle regulations.
64Lighting and visibilityHeadlamp beam height adjustmentTo avoid inconvenience to other road users, the height of the halogen headlamps should be adjusted according to the load in the vehicle.0Unladen.1Partial load.2Medium load.3Maximumauthorisedload.4 5 6Not used.The initial setting is position 0.Wiper control stalkProgrammingYour vehicle may also include some functions that can be activated/deactivated:–automatic windscreen wipers,–rear wiping on engaging reverse gear.The system will be operational as soon as you exceed 16 mph (25km/h).If the speed drops below 9 mph (15km/h), the system no longer operates.Activation/DeactivationActivation and deactivation are done via the vehicle configuration menu.When deactivated, the lighting system changes to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode.The state of the system stays in the memory when switching off the ignition.OperationIf the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the traffic conditions do not allow the main beam headlamps to be lit:–The dipped beam headlamps remain lit. These indicator lamps come on on the instrument panel.If the ambient light level is very low and traffic conditions permit:–The main beam headlamps come on automatically. These indicator lamps come on on the instrument panel.The function is deactivated if the fog lamps are switched on or the system detects dense fog.When the fog lamps are switched off or the vehicle leaves the area of dense fog, the function is automatically reactivated.This indicator lamp goes out when the function is deactivated.PauseIf the situation requires a change of headlamp beam, the driver can take over at any time.►A "headlamp flash" pauses the function and the system changes to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode:–if the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator lamps were on, the system changes to main beam,–if the "AUTO" and "Main beam" indicator lamps were on, the system changes to dipped beam.To reactivate the system, flash the headlamps again.The system may suffer interference or not work correctly:–under conditions of poor visibility (snow, heavy rain, etc.),–if the windscreen in front of the camera is dirty, misted or obscured (for example, by a sticker, etc.),–if the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs.When the system detects thick fog, it temporarily deactivates the function.The system is not able to detect:–road users that do not have their own lighting, such as pedestrians,–vehicles whose lighting is obscured (for example: vehicles running behind a safety barrier on a motorway),–vehicles at the top or bottom of a steep slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.Clean the windscreen regularly, particularly the area in front of the camera.The internal surface of the windscreen can also become misted around the camera. In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.Do not allow snow to accumulate on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could obstruct the detection camera.
