(Auto Signal)
An arrow on the
instrument panel cluster
flashes in the direction of
the turn or lane change.
Move the the lever all the way up or down to signal

Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash to

burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers
on
page 6‑101.
Turn Signal on Chime
A chime sounds if the turn signal has been on for more
than three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km) of driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal on for more than
three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km), turn off the signal and
then turn it back on.

4-5

Wiper Activated Headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps and parking
lamps after the windshield wipers have been in use for
approximately 15 seconds and deactivates and returns
to ambient lighting conditions 15 seconds after the
wipers are turned off.
If the exterior lamp control has been turned off or is in
the parking lamp position while the wiper control is
active in any position, the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED
message appears on the Driver Information Center
(DIC). See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4‑52.
When the ignition is turned off, the wiper-activated
headlamps will immediately turn off.
Headlamps on Reminder
A warning chime will sound if the exterior lamp control
is left on in either the headlamp or parking lamp position
and the driver's door is opened with the ignition off.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the day.
Fully functional daytime running lamps are required on
all vehicles first sold in Canada.
The DRL system makes the front turn signal lamps
come on when the following conditions are met:
.It is still daylight and the ignition is on.
.The exterior lamp control is in the AUTO position.
.The transmission is not in P (Park) or the parking
brake is off.
.The parking brake is off or the vehicle speed is
greater than 8 mph (13 km/h).
When DRL are on, only the front turn signal lamps will
be on. The parking lamps, taillamps, instrument panel
lights, or other exterior lamps will not be on when the
DRL are being used.
When it is dark enough outside, the front turn signal
lamps turn off and the normal low-beam headlamps
turn on.
4-12

When it is bright enough outside, the regular lamps
go off, and the front turn signal lamps will take over.
If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, the automatic
headlamp system comes on immediately. Once the
vehicle leaves the garage, it takes approximately
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 knob
is in the full bright position. See Instrument Panel
Brightness
on page 4‑15for more information.
If it is dark enough outside and the exterior lamp control
is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message will
display on the Driver's Information Center (DIC).
See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4‑52.
Turning the exterior lamp control to off a second
time, or turning on the headlamps will remove the
HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message in the DIC. If the
parking lamps or the fog lamps were turned on instead,
the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message will continue
to be displayed.
The regular headlamp system should be turned on
when needed. To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior lamp control to the
off position or shift into P (Park). The DRL will stay off
until the control is toggled again or the vehicle is shifted
out of P (Park).
This procedure applies only to vehicles first sold in the
United States.
Fog Lamps
Use fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions.
The fog lamps control is located on the multifunction
lever next to the exterior lamp control.
#
(Fog Lamps) : Turning the band to this position will
turn the fog lamps on.
When you turn the fog lamps on, the fog lamp light will
appear on the instrument panel cluster to indicate that
the fog lamps and the parking lamps are on.
If you turn the high-beam headlamps on, the fog lamps
will turn off. They will turn on again when you switch to
low-beam headlamps.
The ignition must be on for the fog lamps to operate.
Some localities have laws that require the headlamps
to be on along with the fog lamps.
