2007 CHEVROLET COLORADO change time

There is a delay in the transition between
the daytime and nighttime operation of the
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) and the automatic
headlamp system so that driving under bridges
or bright overhead street lights does not affect
the system. The DRL and automatic headlamp
system will only be affected when the light sensor
detects a change in lighting lasting longer than
the delay.
If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system will come on
immediately. Once you leave the garage, it will
take about one minute for the automatic headlamp
system to change to DRL if it is light outside.
During that delay, the instrument panel cluster
may not be as bright as usual. Make sure
the instrument panel brightness control is in
the full bright position. SeeInstrument Panel
Brightness on page 174.Fog Lamps
If your vehicle has fog lamps, you can use them
for better vision in foggy or misty conditions.
Your parking lamps and/or low-beam headlamps
must be on for your fog lamps to work.
The fog lamp button is
located near the exterior
lamps control.
Press the button to turn the fog lamps on while
the headlamps or parking lamps are on. Press the
button again to turn them off. An indicator light
will glow in the button when the fog lamps are on.
Remember, fog lamps alone will not give off as
much light as your headlamps. Never use your fog
lamps in the dark without turning on the headlamps.
The fog lamps will go off whenever your
high-beam headlamps come on. When the high
beams go off, the fog lamps will come on again.
Some localities have laws that require the
headlamps to be on along with the fog lamps.

Recirculation is only available in the bi-level and
vent modes. It should only be used while in bi-level
and vent modes. Recirculation is not available,
and the light will not come on or ash while in heat,
oor, oor/defog, or defrost modes.
#(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn
the air conditioning system on or off. An indicator
light on the button will come on to let you know
the air conditioning is activated. When the system
is on, this setting cools and dehumidies the
air entering your vehicle.
The air conditioning will not function if the fan is
turned off.
You may notice a slight change in engine
performance when the air conditioning compressor
shuts off and turns on again. This is normal.
The system is designed to make adjustments to
help with fuel economy while still maintaining
the selected temperature.The air conditioning system removes moisture
from the air, so you may sometimes notice a
small amount of water dripping underneath
your vehicle while idling or after turning off the
engine. This is normal.Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool
window glass. This can be minimized if the
climate control system is used properly. There
are two modes to clear fog or frost from your
windshield and side windows. Use the defog
mode to clear the windows of fog or moisture and
warm the passengers. Use the defrost mode to
remove fog or frost from the windshield more
quickly. For best results, clear all snow and
ice from the windshield before defrosting.
