Operation of Lights 
Although  your  vehicle’s  lighting  system  (headlights,  parking  \
lights, fog 
lamps,  side marker lights  and  taillights)  meets all  applicable  federal 
lighting  requirements, certain  states and  provinces  may  apply their 
own 
lighting  regulations  that may  require  special attention  before you operate 
these  lights. 
For  example,  some  jurisdictions  may  require that you operate  your  lower 
beam  lights  with  fog  lamps  at all  times,  or  that headlights  be turned  on 
whenever  you  must  use  your  windshield  wipers.  In addition,  most 
jurisdictions  prohibit driving  solely  with  parking  lights,  especially  at dawn 
or  dusk.  It is  recommended  that you  check  with  your 
own state  or 
provincial  highway  authoritfi  for applicable  lighting  regulations.

When  using  concentrated  washer  fluid, follow the 
manufacturer's  instructions for  adding water. 
Don't  mix  water  with  ready-to-use  washer  fluid.  Water  can 
cause  the solution  to  freeze  and damage  your  washer  fluid 
tank  and  other parts of the  washer  system. 
Also, water 
doesn't  clean  as well 
as washer  fluid. 
~ Fill  your  washer  fluid  tank only 3/4 full when  it's  very  cold. 
This  allows  for  expansion,  which  could  damage  the tank 
if it 
is completely  full. 
Don't  use radiator  antifreeze  in your  windshield  washer. It 
can  damage  your  washer  system  and paint.

The Canadian  Federal  Government  has  decided  that “Daytime  Running 
Lights”  (DRL)  are  a  useful feature,  in that  DRL  can  make  your  vehicle 
more  visible 
to pedestrians  and  other drivers  during  daylight  hours.  DRL 
are  required  on  new  vehicles  sold 
in Canada. 
your  DRL  work  with  a  light  sensor  on top 
of the  instrument  panel.  Don’t 
cover  it up. 
The low  beam  headlights will come  on at reduced  brightness in daylight 
when: 
0 The  ignition  is on 
0 The  headlight  switch  is  off,  and 
0 The transaxle  is  not  in  “P” (Park). 
At  dusk,  if the  Twilight  Sentinel  feature is turned  on, the  exterior  lights 
will  come  on  automatically  and  the low  beams  will  change  to full 
brightness.  At  dawn,  the exterior  lights  will go out  and  the low  beams  will 
change  to the  reduced  brightness 
of DRL  (if the  headlight  switch  is off). 
Of course,  you  may  still  turn on the  headlights  any time  you need  to. 
To  idle  your  vehicle  with  the  DRL 
off, snift the transaxle  into  “P” (Park). 
The  DRL  will  stay 
off until you shift  out of “P” (Park).
