Starting (ignition) switch/steering wheel lock
If you find it difficult to insert the key in the ignition or to move the steering wheel, the steering wheel
lock might be under tension. Turn the wheel back and forth slightly to free the ignition key.
In order to reduce car theft, make sure the steering wheel locks before leaving the car.
A chime will sound if the starting key is left in the ignition lock and the front door on the driver's side is
opened.

1 - Instrument illumination
To increase the brightness: move the thumbwheel up.
To decrease the brightness: move the thumbwheel down.
2 - Rear fog light *
The rear fog light (located in the driver's side tail light cluster) is considerably brighter than the normal
tail lights and should be used only when the atmospheric conditions, such as fog, rain, snow, smoke or
dust reduce the daytime or nighttime visibility of other vehicles to less than 500 ft (150 meters).
For the rear fog light to function, the low beam headlights must be switched on.
* By design, there is one rear fog light only, located in the driver's side tail light cluster.
3 - Front fog lights (option)
The front fog lights, located in the front spoiler, will only function in combination with the low beam
headlights.
