Headlamps
On
Reminder
A tone will sound when your headlamps are turned
on
and your ignition
is
in
OFF,
LOCK or
ACCESSORY.
If
you
need to use your headlamps when
the
ignition
switch is in
OFF,
LOCK or ACCESSORY, the tone
can be turned off by turning the thumb wheel
next
to
the parking lamp/headlamp switch all the way down.
Daytime Running Lamps
(If
Equipped)
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.
The DRL system will make your headlamps come on at
a reduced brightness when:
0
The ignition is on,
0
The
headlamp switch is
off,
and
0
The parking brake
is
released.
If your vehicle was first sold, when new,
in
Canada,
your headlamps will come on at reduced brightness.
If your vehicle was first sold, when new,
in
the United
States, your vehicle may be equipped with DRL. If your
vehicle has DRL,
you
will see the
the
DRL indicator
light
on
your instrument panel and your low-beam
headlamps will
come
on
at reduced brightness.
When the DRL are on,
only
your
headlamps will
be
on.
The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won’t be
on.
Your instrument panel won’t be lit up either.
When
it
begins to get dark, your DRL indicator light is a
reminder
to
turn
your headlamp switch
on.
The other lamps
that come on with your headlamps will also come on.
When you turn off the headlamp switch, the regular
lamps will go off, and your headlamps will change to
the reduced brightness
of
DRL.
To
idle your vehicle with the engine on and the DRL
off,
set the parking brake. The DRL will stay off until
you
release the parking brake.
As
with any vehicle,
you
should turn
on
the regular
headlamp system when you need
it.
Dome Lamps
The dome lamps will come on when you open the doors.
You
can also turn the dome
lamps
on
by rotating the
thumb wheel, located next
to
the headlamp knob, all
the way up to the second notch. In this position, the
dome lamps will remain on whether the doors are
opened or closed.
