Daytime Running Lights (DRL) Indicator Light
(Canada
Only)
If your vehicle was
first sold, when new,
~ in Canada, you will
have this light on the instrument panel.
It goes on whenever
the Daytime Running
Lights are
on.
Daytime Running Lights (Canada Only)
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.
The high beam headlights will come
on at reduced brightness in daylight
when:
The ignition is on
The headlight switch is off, and
The parking brake is released.
When
you turn on your headlights, the DRL will switch off and the exterior
lights will come on. When
you turn off the headlights, the exterior lights
will go out and
the high beams will change to the reduced brightness of
DRL again. The DRL indicator light on the instrument panel will go on
whenever the DRL are
on. This light means that only the DRL are on. When
you turn on your exterior lights, this light will go out.
Of course, you may still turn on the headlights any time you need to.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, set the parking brake. The DRL will
stay
off until you release the parking brake.
