Lamps On Reminder
If you open the driver’s door with the ignition off and
the lamps on, you will hear a warning chime.
Daytime Running Lamps/Automatic
Light Control
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.
The DRL system will make your high-beam headlamps
come on at reduced brightness in daylight when:
The ignition is on with the engine running,
0 The headlamp switch is OFF,
0 The parking brake is released and
0 The transaxle is not in PARK (P) on models with an
automatic transaxle.
This indicator light on your
instrument panel comes on
when the DRL are on.

Illuminated Entry
When you open either front door, or open a rear door,

will fade off after about
40 seconds, or when the ignition
is turned on after all the doors have been closed.
If the ignition has been off for less than two minutes,
the lamps inside your vehicle will stay on for about
15 seconds to provide an illuminated exit when you
remove the key from the ignition.
After
you exit the vehicle and all of the doors have been
closed,
the lamps will stay on for an additional four
seconds before fading
off. These lamps will also go on
when you press the
DOOR or UNLOCK button on the
optional Keyless Entry Transmitter.
