Abstract
The invention concerns a device for lighting the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. The device includes a variable light-emitting element adapted to generate selectively a light beam having at least one variable characteristic, and a device for measuring the ambient temperature in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. A device for controlling the variable light-emitting element is configured to control the emission of the light beam and to vary the variable characteristic of the light-emitting element as a function of the ambient temperature measured by the device for measuring.
