your headlights ON or OFF based
on ambient light levels. To turn

If the headlights or the park lights are left on, or if the
dimmer control is in the extreme top position after the
ignition switch is turned off, a chime will sound when the
driver’s door is opened.

fog lights are left on for extended periods of time when
the ignition switch is in the LOCK position. After 3
