Headlight Switch

1 — Rotate Headlight Control
2 — Instrument Panel Dimmer Control
To turn on the headlights, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise. When the headlight switch is on, the parking
lights, taillights, license plate light and instrument panel
lights are also turned on.
The headlight switch is equipped with a momentary O (off)
detent. When the vehicle is at a standstill and the
headlight switch is held in the O (off) position, the Daytime
Running Lights (DRLs) will turn on. As soon as the vehicle
starts to move, the O (off) position is disabled and the
DRLs may turn off and low beam headlights may
automatically turn on based on exterior ambient
light levels.
From the O (off) position, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise to the first detent for automatic headlights, the
second detent for parking lights and instrument panel
lights operation, or to the third detent for headlights,
parking lights, and instrument panel lights operation.

On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights may deac-
tivate, or reduce intensity, on one side of the vehicle (when
a turn signal is activated on that side), or on both sides of
the vehicle (when the hazard warning lights are activated).
