DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS

The daytime running lights system provides added
safety by making the front of the vehicle more visible
to other drivers during the day.
The daytime running lights system turns the
headlights on when:
Engine is running;
l
Parking brake is released;
l
The exterior lighting switch is set to the OFF
l
position or pressed to the first position.
WARNING
Do not drive with only the daytime running lights at
night because the tail and marker lights are not
turned on in that situation and the high beams can
blind other drivers. For night driving, turn ON the
headlights by depressing the exterior lighting
rocker switch to the second position.

FOG LIGHTS

Optional halogen fog lights are available. They
provide better visibility in fog and precipitation. They
improve visibility immediately in front of the vehicle.
They also provide added safety.
NOTE
Some states or provinces may restrict the use of
fog lights. Verify local state or provincial
regulations before using.

CORNERING AND DOCKING LIGHTS

The vehicle may be equipped with up to four halogen
cornering lights. Two lights are installed at the front
of the vehicle, on each side as standard equipment.
Two optional lights may be installed on each side at
the rear of the vehicle. When activated, the front
lights illuminate at the same time as the turn signal
flashers to increase lateral visibility while turning.
The rear lights illuminate when the reverse (R) range
is selected to increase visibility while backing-up the
vehicle. All four lights will illuminate when the
docking position is selected using the rocker switch.
Refer to chapter: "Controls and Instruments".

COMPARTMENT LIGHTING

Baggage
compartments lights are automatically turned on
when the corresponding compartment door is
opened. A pictogram will appear on the status bar of
the Driver Information Display (DID) when the
baggage compartment door is open.

MUD FLAPS AND SPLASH GUARDS

Mud flaps are installed behind each front wheel and
the tag axles. Mud flaps minimize dirt on the lower
panels of the vehicle and prevent stones and debris
from being thrown at vehicles traveling behind the
vehicle. Splash guards may be installed behind each
dual wheel of the drive axle to prevent stone
projectiles from being thrown at the tag axle wheels.

BACK-UP CAMERA

An optional back- up camera is available which
provides the driver with visual assistance when
backing-up. The monitor is mounted on the left side
pillar. It switches on automatically when the
transmission is in the reverse (R) range.

BACK-UP ALARM

The back- up alarm alerts pedestrians and other
drivers when the vehicle is being backed-up. Take
extra
necessary, use a guide to provide directions when
backing-up. Both the alarm and optional camera are
automatically activated when the transmission is put
in the reverse (R) range.

BACK-UP ALARM CANCEL SWITCH

A rocker switch located on the lateral control panel
allows the driver to cancel the back-up alarm system
(as for example: at night on a camping site).
NOTE
After use, return to normal operation.
