Headlamp Delay

The term "headlamp" used throughout this section is assumed to be either dipped beam or main beam, as selected by the main beam changeover switch. This switch will continue to function for the duration of the delay period.

The headlamps will operate when the headlamp switch is set to the headlamp position, regardless of the status of the ignition switch.

If the ignition switch is turned off and the key removed whilst the headlamps are on, and the headlamp switch is subsequently turned off with a dwell of less than 1 second in the side lamp position, then a 25 second headlamp delay will be initiated.

If the ignition switch is turned off and the key removed while the headlamps are on and the headlamp switch is subsequently turned to the side lamp position for greater than 1 second then the headlamps will be switched off and parking lamps will remain on until the headlamp switch is turned OFF, or turned back to the headlamp position.

The headlamp delay may be cancelled immediately at any time while it's active (master lighting switch in the off position) by the following actions:
^ Insertion of the ignition key or selection of auxiliary /ignition (all exterior lamps will be extinguished).
^ Turning the headlamp switch to the side lamp position. In this case the exterior lamps will immediately revert to parking lamps mode.
^ Turning the headlamp switch to the headlamps position. In this case the headlamps and normal side lamps (i.e. not parking lamps) will be active.
