Headlight Dimmer And Turn Signal Switch - Lexus RX300 Manual

The lights automatically turn off when the driver's door is opened
with the ignition key turned to the "ACC" or "LOCK" position. To
turn them on again, turn the ignition key to the "ON" position, or turn
the headlight switch off and then twist the knob until the first or
second clickstop. If you are going to park for over one week, make
sure the headlight switch is off.
Daytime Running Light System
The headlights turn on when the parking brake is released with the
engine started, even with the light switch in the "OFF" position.
They will not go off until the ignition switch is turned off.
To turn on the other exterior lights and instrument panel lights, twist
the knob to the first clickstop.
Under the daytime running light system, the headlights turn on at
reduced intensity. Twist the knob to the second clickstop to turn to
full intensity for driving at night.
When setting the knob to the third clickstop ("AUTO"), the
headlights will automatically adjust to full intensity and/or turn on
the other lights depending on the darkness of the surroundings.
Likewise, as the surroundings become brighter, the headlights will
turn to reduced intensity, ultimately turning off the other lights.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the
lights on longer than necessary when the engine is not running.
