Does anyone know what they are and explain how they work??

Hat · Feb 4th, 2004, 01:18 PM

if you turn off your engine before you turn off your lights, the lights stay on for a pre-set period (40 seconds) & then automatically turn off. this is to allow you to find your way to your door in the dark. if you turn off your lights & then your engine, the lights go out straight away as normal.

this is one of the programmable options which your dealer can change for you

Furthermore, if you have turned the lights and engine off and then pull the lever as if you're flashing the lights they will also come on for 40secs.

Hat · Feb 4th, 2004, 01:44 PM

Thanks, yours too. I went there 4 years ago and I did 2 laps with a Ferrari 360F1

and 2 laps sitting to the right seat. I think that is ok to put the sticker to my signature and to my S, don't you think so? look at my gallery I’ll post two photos from that trip.

Perhaps you allready know. but if you switch your lights off (and engine off) en have the (for example) light indicator on, you will have the parking light..

But you probably knew this allready.
