AUTOLAMPS

WARNING: In severe weather conditions, it may be necessary to

switch your headlamps on manually.

Note: If the vehicle is equipped with autolamps, it will have the

windshield wiper rainlamp feature. When the windshield wipers are

turned to low- or high-speed wiping during daylight, and the headlamp

control is in the autolamp position, the exterior lamps will turn on after a

brief delay and will remain on until the wipers are turned off.

Note: If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is

installed, the dimmer will set the illuminated components to the

maximum setting automatically.
