Headlamps On Reminder; Daytime Running Lamps (Drl); Instrument Panel Brightness - GMC 2006 Savana Owner's Manual

Headlamps on Reminder

A reminder chime will sound when your control is turned
to the headlamps or parking lamps position, your key
is out of the ignition, and your driver's door is open.
To disable the chime, turn the control to the Daytime
Running Lamp (DRL) position and then back to the
parking lamps or headlamps position.

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)

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. Fully functional
daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles
first sold in Canada.
The DRL system will come on when the following
conditions are met:
•
the ignition is on,
•
the exterior lamps control is in DRL mode and not
in the defeat position.
When the DRL are on, only your parking lamps will
be on. The other lamps will not be on. The instrument
panel will be lit.
3-14
When you turn the headlamp switch off, the headlamps
will go off, and your DRL lamps (parking lamps) will
illuminate.
To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior lamp control to the
off position or shift into PARK (P). The DRL will stay
off until the control is toggled again or the vehicle
is shifted out of PARK (P).
This procedure applies only to vehicles first sold in the
United States.
