Getting to Know Your Solstice
14
CONVENIENCE
Your Solstice is equipped with an Auto-
matic Headlamp System, which turns on
the Daytime Running Lamps during day-
time and the headlamps and other exte-
rior lamps at night or when necessary.
The headlamps and parking lamps also
will turn on if the wipers are on for more
than 15 seconds.
Exterior Lamp Control Switch
The exterior lamps can be operated
manually using the control switch locat-
ed on the lever to the left of the steering
column. The switch can be rotated to
each of the following positions:
(Headlamps): This position turns
on the headlamps, parking lamps and
taillamps.
(Parking Lamps):
This position
turns on the parking lamps and taillamps
only.
AUTO (Automatic Lamp Control): This
position automatically turns on Daytime
Running Lamps in the daytime, and
headlamps, parking lamps and taillamps
at night or when necessary.
Exterior Lamps
(On/Off): When operating in the
AUTO position, a momentary turn of the
lamp control switch to the position
will turn off the Automatic Headlamp
System. The Driver Information Center
will display an Auto Lights Off message.
To activate the Automatic Headlamp
System, turn the switch to the posi-
tion again. An Auto Lights On message
will be displayed. The Automatic Head-
lamp System is always turned on when
the vehicle is started.
The Daytime Running Lamps will turn off
when the vehicle is shifted into Park
(automatic transmission) or the parking
brake is set (manual transmission). The
Daytime Running Lamps will be off if the
parking brake is applied when the vehi-
cle is started, but will not turn off when
the parking brake is applied after the
vehicle has been moving.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
