Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.

Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved
so you can see more from the
driver’s seat.
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If
you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on
your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before changing lanes.
The electric mirror control is on the driver’s door. To
adjust either mirror, press the
LT (left) or RT (right) switch
to select the mirror, then press the arrows to adjust the
direction of the mirror. The selected mirror will stay on for
20 seconds after the last adjustment. An indicator light will
come on above the mirror that you select.
Your preferred mirror position can be stored if you have
the memory option. See “Memory” in the Index.
For operation of the heated outside
mirrors, see “Rear
Window Defogger” in the Index.
