If the headlamps are off or in
low-beam mode, the high-beam

mode, they will go to low beam.

Daytime Running

Lamps (DRL)

DRL can make it easier for others to
see the front of your vehicle during
the day. Fully functional DRL are
required on all vehicles first sold in

The DRL system turns on the
low-beam headlamps at a reduced
brightness. For vehicles with High

there is a dedicated DRL. The DRL will
come on when all of the following
conditions are met:
The ignition is on.
The exterior lamp control is
in AUTO.
The light sensor determines it is
daytime.
The parking brake is released or
the vehicle is not in P (Park).
The taillamps, sidemarker lamps,
instrument panel lights, and other
lamps will not be on.
The DRL turn off when the headlamps
are turned to or the ignition is off.
For vehicles first sold in Canada, the
DRL can only be turned off when the
transmission is in P (Park).
Automatic Headlamp
System
When the exterior lamp control is set
to AUTO and it is dark enough
outside, the headlamps come on
automatically.
