Thread: Getting into the settings menu on D3

Do you have the HSE , and does it also activate the rear white
lights for all around illumination ?

Mine is an SE. Only had it about a week so still trying to figure out all it's features. Not sure about the all around rear illumination I would say probably not.

I assume you have radio controls on the steering wheel???? If so the following is the routine.

Put the ignition switch to on (lights on dash) - then using the i button on the stalk scroll through the trip meter functions ie av fuel consumption, distance to go etc until you come to settings. The screen will say settings and say something like "to enter >" where the arrows are the radio sideway arrows on the steering wheel that are used to change stations etc

Press the right arrow and you enter the settings menu with the display in the instrument panel showing where you are - you press the right hand steering wheel arrow and you will go through the menu eg Trip distance units, fuel units etc - eventually you come to Headlamp Off Delay and you will have various options - something like 30s, 60s, 120s and 240s. Using the up and down volume button on the steering wheel you scroll through these options - selecting what you want - PRESS i on the stalk and all is saved.

If you don't have radio controls on your steering wheel then I am afraid you are on your own. I hope that this is helpful.

Whilst my car does have radio sterring controls which work, I was told by the previous owner that he had them put in himself. ie after he had the car for a while. The controls seem to do what they are supposed to but perhaps since the original car did not come out with the sterring wheel controls the functionality was never there.

I wonder if the dealer can enable it? Hmmm interesting.

steering not sterring.. hehe. sorry.

If you follow the instructions to get into settings I would have thought that through its own sign language it would point you in the direction of what to do - maybe you need to move the same controls but on the radio (just tried it on mine but they only control the radio).

I guess what you need is for someone to come along with a car that does not have steering controls and explain how they do it (if indeed you can) - but if it is your book for a car without steering controls the the instructions should work.
