The control on the left side of the instrument
panel controls these
lamp systems:
0 Headlamps
0 Taillamps
Parking Lamps
0 Sidemarker Lamps
0 License Plate Lamp
Underhood Lamp
Fog Lamps (DeVille Concours Only)
Instrument Panel Lights
0 Interior Courtesy Lamps Pull the lamp control knob out to the

the parking and taillamps, sidemarker lamps and
instrument panel lights. Pull the knob out all the way to
turn
on the headlamps. Push the control knob all the way
back
in to turn the lamps and lights off.
Cluster lighting as well as instrument panel backlighting
will dim only when
it is dark outside.
Wiper Activated Headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps and parking lamps
after the windshield wipers have been in use for
approximately
20 seconds.
In order to operate the wiper activated headlamps, the
twilight sentinel must be turned on. This feature lights
the way in poor weather and it also makes your vehicle
more visible to other drivers. If the wiper activated
headlamps are on, and the ignition switch is turned off,
the wiper activated headlamps will immediately turn
off.
The wiper activated headlamps will deactivate if you
turn
off the twilight sentinel or if the windshield wipers
have been turned
off for a period of one or two seconds.

You will hear a warning chime if you open any door
while leaving the lamps
on, if the manual headlamp
control is activated. An exception to this is when you’re
using twilight sentinel.
Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front
o€ 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 the low-beam headlamps
come on at reduced brightness when:
the ignition is on,
the headlamp switch is off and
0 the transaxle is not in PARK (P).
When DRL are on, only your low-beam headlamps (at
reduced brightness) will be on.
No other exterior lamps
such as the parking lamps, taillamps, etc. will be on
when the DRL are being used. Your instrument panel won’t be lit up either. When
the twilight sentinel switch is on and it’s dark
enough outside, the low-beam headlamps (at reduced
intensity) will turn
off and normal low-beam headlamp
operation will occur. When the twilight sentinel switch
is on and it’s bright enough outside, the regular lamps
will go
off, and the low-beam headlamps at reduced
brightness will take over for the
Dm.
If it’s dark enough outside and the twilight sentinel
control
is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
This message informs the driver that turning
on the
exterior lamps is recommended even though the DRL
are still illuminated (it’s become dark enough outside to
require the headlamps and/or other exterior lamps).
Turning on the twilight sentinel, the headlamp switch or
the fog lamp switch will remove the HEADLAMPS
SUGGESTED message.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, turn off the
twilight sentinel and shift the transaxle into PARK
(P).
Placing your vehicle in PARK (P) disables the Dm.
The DRL will stay off until you shift out of PARK (P).
To drive your vehicle with the DRL off, turn off the
twilight sentinel and manually
turn on the parking lamps.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need
it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fog Lamps (DeVille Concours Only)
Use the fog lamps for better
vision in foggy or misty
conditions. When you press
the fog lamp button, a small
indicator light will tell you
that the fog lamps and the
parking lamps are on. Press
the button again to turn
them off.
If you switch
on the high-beam headlamps, the fog
lamps will
turn off. They'll turn back on again when you
switch to low-beam headlamps.
When the twilight sentinel is
on and the fog lamp switch
is activated, the fog lamps will remain on as well as the
headlamps and parking lamps.
Cornering Lamps
The cornering lamps come on when the headlamps or
parking lamps are on and you signal a turn. They
provide more light for cornering.
Twilight Sentinel
f
TWILIGHT
The control is next to
the headlamp knob. It
automatically switches the
lamps on and
off by sensing
how dark it
is outside.
To operate the twilight sentinel, leave the lamp knob
off and move the TWILIGHT control to any position
but
OFF.
2-44

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If you move the control all the way to the right, the
lamps
will remain on for approximately three minutes
after the ignition has been turned to
OFF or LOCK. If
you move the control
so it is just on, the lamps will go
off quickly when you turn the ignition’switch out of
RUN. You can adjust the delay time from only a few
seconds to three minutes.
If it’s dark enough outside and the twilight sentinel
control is
off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
This message informs the driver that tuming on the
exterior lamps is recommended (it’s become dark
enough outside to require the headlamps and/or other
exterior lamps).
Turning on the twilight sentinel, the
headlamp switch or the
fog lamp switch will remove the
HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message.
Light Sensor
I
.i ,
The light sensor for the DRL and the twilight sentinel is
located in the center of the front defogger grille.
If you
cover
the sensor, it will read “dark‘’ and the lamps will
come on.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of fires
caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band
is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one
of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t
have a spare fuse, you can “borrow” one that has the same amperage. Pick some feature
of your vehicle that
you can get along without
-- like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the engine
compartment fuse block and the rear compartment
fuse block.
