Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When the DRL are on, only your front turn signal lamps
will be on. The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps
will not be on.
When you turn on your headlamps, your front turn
signal lamps (DRL) will go out. The other lamps that
come on with your headlamps will also come on.
On vehicles built for Canada, when it’s dark enough
outside, your front turn signal lamps will automatically
go out and your headlamps will come
on. The other
lamps that come on with your headlamps will also come
on. When it’s bright enough outside, the headlamps
will go off, and your front turn signal lamps (DRL)
will come ,on.
Also on Canadian vehicles, there is a light sensor in the
defroster grille, at the base of the windshield and the
instrument panel. This sensor makes the DRL work
automatically, so be sure it isn’t covered.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.
Fog Lamps (Option)
Use your fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions. Your parking lamps or low-beam headlamps
must be on or your fog lamps won’t work.
To turn the fog lamps on, push the button located on the
instrument panel to the left of the steering column.
A
light on the button will come on when the fog lamps
are on. Push the button again to turn the fog lamps off.

Sensors
The Dual Zone Electronic Climate Control System
uses several sensors to control operation and
display information.
Solar Load Sensor
This sensor is located on the top right side of the
defroster grille. The defroster grille is on the top
of
the instrument panel.
The sensor monitors the sun’s solar radiation and uses
this information as part of the automatic climate control
system when operating in the AUTO mode.
Be careful not to put anything over the sensor. It cannot
compensate for changes in the amount of heat the
vehicle
is absorbing from the sun when it is covered.
