The
high beam indicator in the instru-
ment cluster display illuminates while the
high beams are active.
Automatic Lighting
When the headlight switch is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is placed in the ON
position, the light sensor will detect the
surrounding light levels and automatically
turns the headlights, other exterior lights and
dashboard illumination on or off.
NOTE:
Do not shade the light sensor by placing a
sticker or a label on the windshield. Other-
wise, the light sensor will not operate
correctly.
Light Sensor
40
The light sensor also works as a rain sensor
for the auto-wiper control. Keep hands and
scrapers clear of the windshield when the
wiper lever is in the AUTO position and the
ignition is placed in the ON position, as
fingers could be pinched or the wipers and
wiper blades damaged when the wipers acti-
vate automatically. When cleaning the wind-
shield, be sure the wipers are turned off
completely when the engine is running.
NOTE:
The headlights, other exterior lights and
instrument panel lights may not turn off
immediately even if the surrounding area
becomes well-lit. This is because the light
sensor determines that it is night time if
the surrounding area is continuously dark
for several minutes such as inside long
tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels, or in
indoor parking lots. In this case, the lights
turn off if the light switch is turned to the
OFF position.
When the headlight switch is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is placed in the
ACC or OFF position, the headlights, other
exterior lights, and dashboard illumination
will turn off.
The dashboard lights can be adjusted by
rotating the knob in the instrument cluster
display. The day/night mode can be
changed by rotating the knob until a beep
sound is heard.
The sensitivity of the automatic lights may
be changed by an authorized dealer.
Follow Me Home
The Follow Me Home Light System turns on
the headlights (low beams) for a period of
time after the ignition is placed in the OFF
position.
System Activation
With the ignition placed in the ACC or OFF
position, pull the headlight control lever rear-
ward and the low beam headlights will turn on.
The headlights turn off after a period of time
after all doors are closed.
The time until the headlights turn off after all
of the doors are closed can be changed
through the Connect system.
The headlights turn off if the lever is pulled
again while the headlights are on, or after
three minutes of no further action after the
first pull of the lever.
