If it's dark enough outside and the Twilight Sentinel
control is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
This message informs the driver that turning on the
exterior lamps is recommended (it's become dark
enough outside to require the headlamps and/or other
exterior lamps). Turning on the Twilight Sentinel,
the headlamps or the fog lamps will remove the
HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message.
Light Sensor
2-40
The light sensor for the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
and the Twilight Sentinel is located in the center of the
front defogger grille. If you cover the sensor, it will read
"dark" and the lamps will come on.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the manual parking lamp control has been left on, the
exterior lamps will turn off approximately 10 minutes
after the ignition is turned to LOCK or ACCESSORY.
This protects draining the battery in case you have
accidentally left the headlamps or parking lamps on.
If you need to purposely leave the lamps on for more
than 10 minutes with the ignition in LOCK or
ACCESSORY, turn the exterior lamps control knob
off and then back on. To delay the lamps from turning
off, see "Twilight Sentinel" in the Index.
