Switches and switches

THE GENERAL DATA

1 – the Switch of external illumination

It is switched off

Lay fires

Near or a headlight

Headlights burn only at the included ignition. During start of the engine and after deenergizing of ignition they are automatically switched to lay fires.

In case after вынимания a key from the ignition lock light devices remained not switched off, at an open door of the driver the signal of type a buzzer starts to sound.

Antifog headlights

The switch of external illumination in positions of lay fires or a passing light/headlight before the first fixed position.

Back antifog lanterns


Cars without antifog headlights

The switch of external illumination to turn in a passing light/headlight position to extend against the stop.

Cars with antifog headlights

The switch of external illumination in a position of lay fires or a passing light/headlight before the second fixed position.

At the included back antifog lanterns on a combination of devices the control lamp burns.

Because of strong blinding action of their back antifog lanterns it is necessary to include only at a low visibility.

The electric scheme of the equipment established at factory necessary for towage of the trailer, is designed in such a manner that at operation of the trailer with back antifog lanterns similar lanterns of the car are automatically disconnected.

2 – Illumination of control devices

At the included external illumination brightness of illumination of control devices smoothly is regulated by the disk regulator close to the switch of external illumination.

3 – the Proof-reader of an inclination of headlights


By means of the adjusting mechanism with the electric drive it is possible to regulate smoothly an angle of slope of light of headlights according to car loading. Thanks to it it is possible to reduce probability of blinding of drivers of counter transport. Simultaneously thanks to correct installation of headlights for the driver the best visibility conditions are created.

Process of installation of headlights can be carried out only at the included passing light.

For lowering downwards a light cone the disk regulator from a starting position follows (–) to turn downwards.

On cars with gas-discharge lamps at inclusion of ignition position of headlights will automatically be co-ordinated with car loading.

4 – Heating of back glass


Heating functions only at the included ignition. When heating is included, the control lamp in the switch burns.

On cars with the electric drive of installation of external mirrors heating of a surface of mirrors joins simultaneously with inclusion of heating of back glass.

5 – the Alarm system

The alarm system functions and at the switched off ignition.

Include the alarm system, when, for example:

 – Your car has stopped because of technical malfunction;
 – You have got to road and transport incident;

At the included alarm system all indexes of turns blink simultaneously. Control lamps of indexes of turns and a control lamp in the switch blink too.

6 – Heating of the left seat
The back and seat pillow can be warmed with an electrocurrent at the included ignition.

Heating include the disk switch-regulator; it smoothly regulate intensity of heating.

For heating deenergizing it is necessary to turn a disk regulator in a starting position (–).

7 – Heating of the right seat

The back and seat pillow can be warmed with an electrocurrent at the included ignition.

Heating joins the corresponding disk switch-regulator; it smoothly regulates intensity of heating.

For device deenergizing it is necessary to turn the switch-regulator in a starting position (–).

8 – Protivobuksovochnaja system with reduction of a twisting moment of the engine

ASR

Usually the system should be always included. Only in certain unusual cases when proslipping of wheels is desirable, it is preferable to switch off system.

For example, at movement with chains противоскольжения, at movement on deep snow or on a friable ground, at rocking of the got stuck car.

After overcoming of such sites it is necessary to include again противобуксовочную system.

For trouble-free operation maintenance противобуксовочной systems it is necessary, that all wheels have been dressed in identical tyres. Various sizes of ways обкатки tyres can lead to undesirable decrease in capacity of the engine.

8 – Electronic system of stabilisation

ESP

When the stabilisation system is switched off, the control lamp of this system burns.

Usually the stabilisation system always is included. Only in certain unusual cases when proslipping of wheels is desirable, it is preferable to switch off system.

For example, at movement on deep snow or on a friable ground, at rocking of the got stuck car.

After overcoming of such sites it is necessary to include system again.

For maintenance of trouble-free operation of electronic system of stabilisation it is necessary, that all wheels have been dressed in identical tyres. Various sizes of ways обкатки tyres can lead to undesirable decrease in capacity of the engine.
