Principle of Operation: Headlights

Low beams are switched on when the main light switch is set to position 2 with the ignition switch in position 2. Pulling the low beam/high beam switch towards the driver with the ignition in position 1 or 2 activates the headlight flasher (flash to pass). Flash to pass is active with the low beams OFF  or ON. 

High beam lights are activated by pulling the low beam/high beam switch toward the driver until its end position is reached. Pulling the switch a second time de-activates the high beams. The low beam lights must be on and the ignition switch in position 2 for high beam activation.

Operation of the optional Xenon headlights is the same.
