Automatic Headlamp System

When the exterior lamp control is set to
Auto and it is dark enough outside, the
headlamps come on automatically.
There is a light sensor on top of the
instrument panel. Do not cover the sensor.
The system may also turn on the headlamps
when driving through a parking garage or
tunnel.
If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system comes on
immediately. If it is light outside when the
vehicle leaves the garage, there is a slight
delay before the automatic headlamp
system changes to the Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL). During that delay, the
instrument cluster may not be as bright as
usual. Make sure the instrument panel
brightness control is in the full bright
position. See Instrument Panel Illumination
Control 0 143.
When it is bright enough outside, the
headlamps will turn off or may change
to DRL.
The automatic headlamp system turns off
when the exterior lamp control is set to On
or the vehicle is off.
Lamps On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are activated in
daylight with the vehicle on and the exterior
lamp control is set to Auto, the headlamps,
parking lamps, and other exterior lamps
come on. The transition time for the lamps
coming on varies based on wiper speed.
When the wipers are not operating, these
lamps turn off. Set the exterior lamp control
to On or Off to disable this feature.

Hazard Warning Flashers

console to make the front and rear turn
signal lamps flash on and off. This warns
others that you are having trouble. Press
again to turn the flashers off.
The turn signals do not work while the
hazard warning flashers are on.
The hazard warning flashers turn on
automatically if the airbags deploy.
