When the twilight sentinel switch is on and it’s dark
enough outside, the low-beam headlamps (at reduced
intensity) will turn
off
and normal low-beam headlamp
operation will occur. When the twilight sentinel switch
is
on
and it’s bright enough outside, the regular lamps
will
go
off,
and the low-beam headlamps at reduced
brightness will take over
for
the
DRL.
If it’s dark enough outside and the twilight sentinel
control is
off,
a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will display on the DIC.
This
message informs the driver
that turning on the exterior lamps is recommended even
though the DRL
are
still illuminated (it’s become dark
enough outside to require the headlamps and/or other
exterior lamps). Turning on the twilight sentinel, the
headlamp switch
or
the fog lamp switch will remove the
HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message.
To
idle your vehicle with the
DRL
off, turn off the
twilight sentinel switch and shift the transaxle into
PARK
(P).
Placing your vehicle in
PARK
(P) disables
the DRL. 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.
Fog
Lamps (DeVille Concours Only)
Use the fog lamps for better
vision in foggy
or
misty
conditions. When you press
the fog lamp button,
a
small
indicator light will tell you
that the fog lamps and the
parking lamps
are
on. Press
the button again to turn
them
off.
If
you switch on the high-beam headlamps, the fog
lamps will turn off. They’ll turn back on again when you
switch to low-beam headlamps.
When the twilight sentinel is
on
and the
fog
lamp switch
is activated, the fog lamps will remain on as well as the
headlamps and parking lamps.
Cornering Lamps
The cornering lamps come on when the headlamps
or
parking lamps are on and you signal a turn. They
provide more light for cornering.
