Lighting 6-5
If the vehicle is started in a dark
garage, the automatic headlamp
system comes on immediately. If it
is light outside when the vehicle
leaves the garage, there is a slight
delay before the automatic
headlamp system changes to the
DRL. During that delay, the
instrument panel cluster may not be
as bright as usual. Make sure the
instrument panel brightness control
is in full bright position. See
Instrument Panel Illumination
Control on page 6‑7 for more
information.
The vehicle can be idled with the
lamps off, even when it is dark
outside. After starting the vehicle,
turn the exterior lamps control to off,
then release it. The lamps will
remain off until the control is turned
to off again.
Twilight Sentinel also provides
exterior illumination as you leave
the vehicle. If Twilight Sentinel has
turned on the lamps when the
ignition is turned off, the lamps
remain on until one of the
following occurs:
.
The exterior lamp control is
moved from
O to the parking
lamp position.
.
The delay time selected has
elapsed.
See Vehicle Personalization on
page 5‑40 to select the delay time.
You can also select no delay time.
If the ignition is turned off with the
exterior lamps control in the parking
lamp or headlamp position, the
Twilight Sentinel delay will not
occur. The lamps will turn off as
soon as the control is turned off.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when needed.
