Automatic Headlamp System
During daytime driving, your vehicle’s
Automatic Headlamp System may
temporarily switch the headlamps and
instrument panel lights, including the
radio display, to the nighttime mode.
This occurs when encountering darker
conditions, such as under a bridge or
inside a parking garage.
When you start the vehicle at night, the
automatic headlamps may not come on
immediately. The system uses a light
sensor located on top of the instrument
panel. To ensure proper headlamp sys-
tem operation, avoid placing objects or
stickers on or near the sensor.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Fog Lamps (if equipped)
The fog lamp button
is located near the
exterior lamps control.
Turn on the fog lamps
Press the button
once while the head-
lamps or parking lamps are on.
The button’s indicator light will glow
when the fog lamps are on.
Turn off the fog lamps
Press the button again.
The fog lamps will shut off whenever the
high beam headlamps are turned on,
and will reactivate when the high beam
headlamps are dimmed or turned off.
The fog lamps are canceled each time
the ignition is turned off and, when
needed, must be turned on manually
after restarting the vehicle.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Cargo Lamps (if equipped)
The cargo lamps provide illumination of
the cargo area and the interiors of the
top-box storage units. The controls are
located near the exterior lamps control.
Turn on the cargo lamps
Press the button once.
The button’s indicator light will glow
when the lamps are on.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Note: To turn your cargo lamps on, the
dome lamp override must not be activat-
ed, and the dome lamps must be on.
Dome Lamp Override
To prevent your vehicle’s dome lamps
from illuminating when a door is opened,
press the dome lamp override button
located below the exterior lamps knob.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
