push the lever toward the instrument
panel. To return to low-beam
headlamps, pull the multifunction

Flash-to-Pass

This feature lets you use the

a driver in front of you that you
want to pass. It works even if the
headlamps are in the automatic
position.
To use it, pull the turn signal lever
toward you, then release it.
If the headlamps are in the
automatic position or on low beam,
the high-beam headlamps will
turn on. They will stay on as long
as you hold the lever toward you.
The high-beam indicator on the
instrument panel cluster will come
on. Release the lever to return to
normal operation.
The low beam headlamps must be
on for the flash to pass feature
to work.

Daytime Running

Lamps (DRL)

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see the
front of your vehicle during the day.
Fully functional daytime running
lamps are required on all vehicles
first sold in Canada.
The DRL system comes on when
the following conditions are met:
The ignition is on.
The exterior lamps control is
in AUTO.
The transmission is not in Park.
The light sensor determines it is
daytime.
When the DRL system is on,
only the DRL lamps are on.

instrument panel lights, and
other lamps will not be on.
