Headlamp Main/
Dipped-Beam Changer

(Headlamp Main/Dipped-Beam

Changer): Push the indicator lever
toward the instrument panel to
change the headlights from dipped
to main beam.
Pull the indicator lever toward you
and release it to return to dipped
beam headlights.
When the main beam headlights are
on, this indicator light on the
instrument cluster will also be on.

Flash-to-Pass

This feature lets you use the
main-beam headlamps to signal 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 indicator stalk
toward you, then release it.
If the headlamps are in the
automatic position or on dipped
beam, the main-beam headlamps
will turn on. They will stay on as
long as you hold the stalk toward
you. The main-beam indicator on
the instrument cluster will come on.
Release the stalk to return to normal
operation.

Daytime Running

Lamps (DRL)

DRL can make it easier for others to
see the front of the vehicle during
the day.
The DRL system comes on when
the following conditions are met:
The ignition is on.
The exterior lamp control is
in AUTO.
The transmission is not in
P (Park).
The light sensor determines it is
daytime.
When the DRL system is on, only
the DRL are on. The tail lamps,
sidemarker lamps, instrument panel
lights, and other lamps will not
be on.
When it begins to get dark, the
automatic headlight system
switches from DRL to the
headlights.
To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior
light control to the off position and
then release.

Automatic Headlamp

System

When it is dark enough outside, the
automatic headlamp system turns
on the headlamps at the normal
brightness, along with the tail lamps,
sidemarker, parking lamps, and the
instrument panel lights. The radio
lights will also be dim.
