Daytime running light system
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the daytime running lights
turn on automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever the engine is started
and the parking brake is released. Daytime running lights are not designed
for use at night.
Headlight control sensor (if equipped)
Automatic light off system
Vehicles with smart entry & start system
When the light switch is in the “AUTO” position, the headlight and all
the lights turn off automatically if the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is
turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned OFF.
When the light switch is in the position, the front fog lights turn
off automatically if the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to
ACCESSORY mode or turned OFF.
When the light switch is in the
position, the headlights and front
fog lights turn off automatically if the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is
turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned OFF.
The front position and tail lights turn off automatically after 20 minutes.
To turn the lights on again, turn to IGNITION ON mode, or turn the light
switch OFF once and then back to the or position.
The sensor may not function properly if
anything that blocks the sensor is affixed
to the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
