When you turn the exterior lamp band to the headlamp
position, your low-beam headlamps will come on.
The other lamps that come on with your headlamps
will also come on.
When you turn off the headlamps, the regular lamps
will go off, and your low-beam headlamps will come
on to the reduced brightness.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, move the shift
lever to PARK (P). The DRL will stay off until you
move the shift lever out of PARK (P).
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.

Automatic Headlamp System

When it is dark enough outside and the exterior lamps
control is in the automatic position, the headlamps
will come on automatically. See Headlamps on
page 3-14.
Your vehicle has a light sensor located on top of the
instrument panel. Make sure it is not covered, or
the headlamps will be on when you don't need them.
The system may also turn on the headlamps when
driving through a parking garage or tunnel.

Fog Lamps

If your vehicle has this feature, use your fog lamps for
better visibility in foggy or misty conditions.
Push the button to turn the fog lamps on or off.
When using fog lamps, the parking lamps or low-beam
headlamps must be on.
A light on the button will come on when the fog lamps
are on. Fog lamps will go off whenever you turn
the high-beam headlamps on. When the high-beam
headlamps are turned off, the fog lamps will come
on again.
Some localities have laws that require the headlamps
to be on along with the fog lamps.
The button for your fog
lamps is located in the
instrument panel above
the radio.
