HEADLIGHT SWITCH
Instruments and controls2-51

To turn on the autolight system:1. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO posi- tion
1.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position.
3. The autolight system automatically turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position and a door is opened and left open, the
headlights remain ON for a period of time. If
another door is opened while the headlights are
on, then the timer is reset.
To turn the autolight system off, turn the switch to
the OFF,
,orposition. Be sure you do not put anything on top of
the autolight sensor
1located on the top
side of the instrument panel. The autolight
sensor controls the autolight; if it is cov-
ered, the autolight sensor reacts as if it is
dark out and the headlights will illuminate.
If this occurs while parked with the engine
off and the ignition switch placed in the ON
position, your vehicle’s battery could be-
come discharged.Headlight beam select

Battery saver system
If the ignition switch is placed in the OFF position
while the headlight switch is in the
orposition, the headlights will turn off after
a period of time.
After the headlights automatically turn off with the
headlight switch in the
orposition,
the headlights will illuminate again if the headlight
switch is moved to the OFF position and then
turned to the
orposition.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
Manual headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)
Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is
traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may di-
rectly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle ahead
or the windshield of the oncoming vehicle. The
light axis can be lowered with the operation of the
switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.
When traveling without a heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0. Select the switch position by referring to the
following sample.

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
(if so equipped)
The LED portion of the headlights (if so
equipped) , or the lights in the fog light area,
automatically illuminate at 100% intensity when
the engine is started and the parking brake re-
leased. The daytime running lights operate with
the headlight switch in the OFF position. When
you turn the headlight switch to the
posi-
tion for full illumination the LED lights (if so
equipped) switch from daytime running lights to
the park function.
If the parking brake is applied before the engine is
started, the daytime running lights do not illumi-
nate. The daytime running lights illuminate when

CAUTION
●After using the E-Lock system, or during
normal driving, turn the switch OFF to
prevent possible damage to driveline
components from extended use.
● When the E-Lock system is in operation,
turning the vehicle becomes difficult.
This can be dangerous, especially at
high speeds. Doing so could damage
drivetrain components.
● Do not operate the E-Lock system when
the vehicle is turning or when one side
wheel is rotating. Otherwise, the power
train system parts could be damaged.
● The E-Lock system operates only when
the engine is running.
● In 4H mode, the E-Lock system does not
operate when the E-Lock system switch
is turned to the ON position. (The
E-Lock system indicator light will flash.)
● Observe the above cautions. Otherwise,
loss of normal steering may result. To use the outlets for devices that require 120v
power, place the ignition in the ON position and
push the power inverter switch.
The 400W or 150W on the switch will illuminate
according to the mode selected. Only the 150W
is available when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position and the vehicle is being driven.
For additional information, refer to “120v outlets”
in this section of the manual regarding using
devices that require the power inverter switch
activated.
CAUTION
●
Use power outlets with the engine run-
ning to avoid discharging the vehicle
battery.
● Do not attempt to use this while driving.
● Do not use double adapters or more
than one electrical accessory, doing so
could significantly drain the battery of
your vehicle.

The parking sensor (sonar) system OFF switch
on the instrument panel allows the driver to turn
the parking sensor (sonar) system, Moving Ob-
ject Detection (MOD) , and Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA) system on and off. To turn the
systems on and off, the ignition switch must be in
the ON position.
The indicator light on the switch will illuminate
when the systems are turned on.
If the indicator light flashes when the parking
sensor (sonar) , MOD, or RCTA systems are not
turned off, it may indicate a malfunction in one or
more of these systems.The parking sensor (sonar) , MOD, or RCTA sys-
tems will be turned on automatically under the
following conditions:
● When the ignition switch is switched from
the OFF position to the ON position.
● When the shift lever is shifted into the R
(Reverse) position.
● When the vehicle speed increases to 6 mph
(10 km/h) and decreases.
The automatic turning on function can be turned
on and off for these systems in the vehicle infor-
mation display (if so equipped) . For additional
information, refer to “Settings” in the “Instrument
and controls” section of this manual.
For additional information, refer to “Front and rear
sonar system” or “Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA)” in the “Starting and Driving” section of
this manual, or the “Moving object detection
(MOD)” in the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone
and voice recognition systems” section of this
manual. Tow mode should be used when pulling a heavy
trailer or hauling a heavy load. Driving the vehicle
in the tow mode with no trailer/load or light
trailer/light load will not cause any damage. How-
ever, fuel economy may be reduced, and the
transmission/engine driving characteristics may
feel unusual.
Push the tow mode switch to activate tow mode.
The TOW indicator light illuminates when tow
mode is selected. Push the tow mode switch
again to turn tow mode off.
Tow mode is automatically canceled when the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.

double adapters or more than one electrical ac-
cessory. When the dual wall bed liner is installed
(if so equipped) , the power outlet is still acces-
sible through the access door in the bed liner.
CAUTION
●Operation of the 120 volt system with
the ignition in the ON position and the
engine not running (idle) will drain the

dead battery or no start condition.
● The outlet and plug may be hot during
or immediately after use.
● Use power outlets with the engine run-
ning to avoid discharging the vehicle
battery.
● Do not use double adaptors or more
than one electrical accessory.
● Avoid using power outlets when the air
conditioner, headlights or rear window
defroster is on.

WARNING
●Make sure that all passengers have
their hands, etc. inside the vehicle while
it is in motion and before closing the
windows. Use the window lock switch to
prevent unexpected use of the power
windows.
● To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assistance
of others or pets unattended in your
vehicle. Additionally, the temperature
inside a closed vehicle on a warm day
can quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
The power windows operate when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position, or for a
period of time after the ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position. If the driver’s or passenger’s
door is opened during this period of time, the
power to the windows is canceled.
