Tato Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Hello everybody I have a basic question...are the lights turning off (delay) a few second after locking the car? Is this standard for all Fiesta cars? This is what I mean: Uploaded with ImageShack.us Thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyb Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 if you mean the 'Headlight Courtesy Delay' feature it was standard on all models listed in the 2009 brochure. :) HTH Cyb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orcomma Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Yes, its standard across the current range. To operate it, just "flash the high beams" with the ignition off. so pull on the left hand stalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna try it tonight now I know how to operate it. Cheers Orcomma! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithC Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Another thing I've never used. Suppose it'd come in handy if you lived in dark places though. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyedge Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 You see...we all learn new things from basic questions...Paul give us your feedback later ok? Ah see, you should have read the manual Tato, but then, us blokes don't need to read manuals right ;) Or as an old college lecturer of mine used to tell us RTFM, you can work out what the F stands for This feature doesn't really work for me as I just end up lighting up the front of my house when I park on the drive, or blinding the neighbours opposite when I reverse in. I would have to park at a skew wiff angle to light my way to the front door which is on the side of my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2011fiesta Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 You see...we all learn new things from basic questions...Paul give us your feedback later ok? Just remembered to try this - yeah handy feature - mainly for those parking infront of their house on the drive facing the front door, however as I park on the street I probs won't use it much. Nice to say the fiesta has this feature though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
