●Vehicles with halogen daytime running lights:
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers during daytime driving,

“AUTO” position. (Illuminate darker than headlight high beams.) Daytime
running lights are not designed for use at night.
Vehicles with LED daytime running lights:
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers during daytime driving,
the daytime running lights turn on automatically whenever the engine is
started and the parking brake is released with the headlight switch in the
“AUTO” position. (Illuminate brighter than parking lights.) Daytime running
lights are not designed for use at night.
U.S.A.: Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch.

switch is in position.
● Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve
fuel economy.

The sensor may not function properly if an
object is placed on the sensor, or 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.
