Lamps
On
Reminder
If
you leave the manual headlamp or parking lamp
switch on, remove the key from the ignition and open
the driver’s door,
you
will hear a continuous warning
chime. The chime will turn off when the lamps are
turned off.
Daytime
Running
Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make
it
easier for
others to see the front of
your
vehicle during the day.
DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful
in
the
short periods after dawn and before sunset.
A
light sensor on top
of
the instrument panel monitors
the exterior light level for the operation
of
DRL and
twilight sentinel,
so
be sure
it
isn’t covered.
The DRL system
will
make your high-beam headlamps
turn on at reduced brightness in daylight when:
The ignition
is
on,
The headlamp switch is off and
The transaxle
is
not
in
PARK
(P).
When thc
DRL
are
on,
only your high-beam headlamps
will be on. The parking lamps, taillamps, sidemarker
and other lamps won’t be
on.
Your instrument panel
lights won’t be on either.
When it
is
dark enough outside, your low-beam
headlamps will come
on.
The
other lamps that turn on
with your headlamps will also turn on. When
it
is bright
enough outside, the regular lamps will go
off,
and your
high-beam headlamps change to the reduced brightness
of
DRL.
To
turn
off
all exterior lighting at night when you are
parked, turn
off
the
headlamps and move the twilight
sentinel control all the way toward
MIN.
The exterior
lamps
will
turn back on automatically when you move
the transaxle out of
PARK
(P).
As
with
any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need
it.
Cornering
Lamps
The cornering lamps are designed to turn on when you
signal
a
turn. This will provide more lighting when
cornering
at
night.
