Daytime Running
Lamps
(Canada
Only)
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 makes the DRL work,
so
be
sure
it
isn’t covered.
The DRL system
will
make your low beam headlamps come on at
reduced brightness when:
0
the ignition is on,
0
the headlamp switch
is
off, and
0
the transaxle
is
not
in
PARK
(P).
When it’s dark enough outside,
your
low beam headlamps
will
change
to
full
brightness. When it’s bright enough outside, the regular lamps
will
go
off and your low beam headlamps change to the reduced brightness of
DRL.
To
idle your vehicle with the DRL off shift the transaxle
into
PARK (P).
The
DRL
will
stay off
until
you
shift
out
of
PARK (P).
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular headlamp system
when
you need it.
