To increase the brightness: move the slide switch to the right. To decrease the brightness: move the slide
switch to the left.
B - Rear foglight (one side only)
The rear foglight (located in the driver's side tail light cluster) is considerably brighter than the normal
tail lights and should be used only when the atmospheric conditions, such as fog, rain, snow, smoke or
dust reduce the daytime or nighttime visibility of other vehicles to less than 500 ft (150 meters).
For the rear fog light to function, the low beam headlights must be switched on.
C - Automatic daytime running lights
NOTE: The daytime running light function may only be disabled (turned off) in the U.S. - Canadian law
mandates the use of daytime running lights.
Screw A in the illustration (available on U.S. models only) is used to control the automatic daytime
running lights when the headlight switch is in position 0.
To adjust, press in the screw with a small screwdriver and turn to one of the following positions:
Automatic daytime running lights
Automatic daytime running lights (will also function when the headlight switch is in position )
All lights off (daytime running light function disabled)
