At the included back fog lamps on a combination of devices the control lamp burns.

Because of the strong blinding action of back fog lamps they should be included only at poor visibility.

The electric circuit of the equipment necessary for towage of the trailer installed at the plant, is designed in such a way that at operation of the trailer with back fog lamps similar lamps of the car are automatically disconnected.

2 – Illumination of control devices

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

3 – Proofreader of an inclination of headlights


By means of the adjusting mechanism with the electric drive it is possible to regulate smoothly a tilt angle of light of headlights according to car loading. Thanks to it it is possible to reduce probability of dazzle of drivers of counter transport. At the same time thanks to the 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 turned-on passing beam.

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

On cars with gas-discharge lamps at inclusion of ignition the provision of headlights will automatically be coordinated with car loading.

For example, at the movement with antisliding chains, at the movement on deep snow or on friable soil, when rocking of the got stuck car.

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

It is necessary for ensuring trouble-free operation of protivobuksovochny system that all wheels were dressed in identical tires. Can lead various sizes of ways of a running in of tires to undesirable deceleration of power of the engine.

 8 – Electronic system of stabilization

ESP

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

Usually the system of stabilization is always included. Only in certain exceptional cases when pro-slipping of wheels is desirable, it is preferable to switch off system.
