Pull the knob toward you, to the first setting to turn on

By rotating the knob, you can make the instrument panel
lights bright or
dim
and

the courtesy lamps on or off.
Lamps On Reminder
If the lamp switch is left on, you'll hear a warning tone
when you turn off the ignition. You can disable the tone
on vehicles without Daytime Running Lamps
or twilight
sentinel by turning the instrument panel brightness all
the way down.
Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the day.
DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the
short periods after dawn and before sunset.
A light sensor on top of the instrument panel makes the
DRL work, so be sure it isn't covered.
The DRL system will make your low-beam headlamps
come on at reduced brightness in daylight when:
0
the ignition is on,
0
the headlamp switch is off, and
0
the parking brake is released.
When the DRL are on, only your low-beam headlamps
will be on. The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps
won't be on. Your instrument panel won't be lit up either.
