surface ahead of the vehicle provides
adequate illumination without dazzling other
road users.
The following load conditions should be used
as a guide.
Position 0:Driver only, or driver and front
seat passenger (loadspace empty).
Position 1:Driver, front passenger and three
rear seat passengers (loadspace empty).
Position 2:All seats occupied by adults
(including inward facing seats - if fitted) and
