Peugeot 308: Exterior lighting control stalk

Main lighting

Automatic illumination of lamps/daytime running lamps

Sidelamps only

Dipped or main beam headlamps

Headlamp dipping

► Pull the lighting control stalk to switch between dipped and main beam headlamps.

In "AUTO" and sidelamps mode, pull the lighting control stalk to switch the main beam headlamps on directly ("headlamp flash").

Display

Illumination of the corresponding indicator lamp on the instrument panel confirms that the selected lighting is on.

A fault with a lamp is signalled by the permanent illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal.

Rear foglamps

They only work if the dipped or main beam headlamps are on.

► Rotate the ring forwards/backwards to turn them on/off.

When the lighting is switched off automatically ("AUTO" position) the foglamps and the dipped beam headlamps remain on.

Switching on the foglamps is prohibited in clear weather or in rain, both day and night. In these situations, the power of their beams may dazzle other drivers. They must only be used in fog or falling snow (rules may vary depending on country).

Do not forget to switch off the foglamps when they are no longer necessary.

Switching off of the lighting when the ignition is switched off

When the ignition is switched off, all of the lamps turn off immediately, except for the dipped beam headlamps if automatic guide-me- home lighting is activated.

Switching on the lamps after switching off the ignition

To reactivate the lighting control, rotate the ring to the "AUTO" position, then to the desired position.

In some weather conditions (e.g. low temperature or humidity), misting on the internal surface of the glass of the headlamps and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear after the lamps have been on for a few minutes.

Never look too closely at the light beam of LED technology lamps - risk of serious eye injury!

Travelling abroad

Vehicles equipped with manual headlamp beam height adjustment: If planning to use your vehicle in a country that drives on the other side of the road, the dipped beam headlamps must be adjusted to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Daytime running lamps/ Sidelamps

These LED lamps at the front of the vehicle light up automatically when the engine starts.

They perform the following functions:

- Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk at position "AUTO" with adequate ambient light).

- Sidelamps (lighting control stalk at position "AUTO" with low ambient light or "Sidelamps only" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").

In daytime running lamps mode, the light-emitting diodes are brighter.
