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.
The DRL system will make your headlamps come on at
a reduced brightness when:
the ignition is on,
the headlamp switch is off, and
the parking brake is released.
When the
DRL
are
on,
only your headlamps will be on.
The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won't
be on.
Your instrument panel won't be lit up either.
When it begins to get dark, your DRL indicator light
is a reminder to turn your headlamp switch on. The
other lamps that come on with your headlamps will
also come
on.
When you turn off the headlamp switch, the regular
lamps will go off, and your headlamps will change to
the reduced brightness
of DRL.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, set the parking
brake. The DRL will stay off until you release the
parking brake.
As
with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need
it.
