Headlights 206

When I turn the headlights on they are dipped. Fine. When I put the
main beam on both the dipped and main beams are on. I can't seem to put
the main beams on by themselves. Is this correct?

Car is a 05 plate

 

I think so. Both lights have separate bulbs, so I don't think they will
overheat this way.
It's the same with my 307, and I like it. This gives a wider view to your
main beams...

Grtz,

If the main and dipped beams are separate bulbs rather than a dual
filament H4 then this is quite common. My Honda motorcycle is the same and
I like it too, gives twice as much light on main beam.
