Daytime running light system
■
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers during daytime driving, the daytime
●
running lights turn on automatically whenever the hybrid system is started and the park-
ing brake is released. (Illuminate brighter than the parking lights.) Daytime running
lights are not designed for use at night.
For the U.S.A.: Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch.
Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system offers greater
●
durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve fuel economy.
Headlight control sensor
■
The sensor may not function properly if an
object is placed on the sensor, or anything that
blocks the sensor is affixed to the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor detecting
the level of ambient light and may cause the
automatic headlight system to malfunction.
