■Daytime running light system
●Vehicles with an automatic transmission: To make your vehicle more visi-
ble to other drivers during daytime driving, the daytime running lights turn
on automatically whenever the engine is started, the shift lever is shifted
out of P and the parking brake is released with the headlight switch off or
in the “AUTO” position. (Illuminate brighter than the parking lights.) Day-
time running lights are not designed for use at night.
● Vehicles with a manual transmission: 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 off or in the “AUTO” position. (Illumi-
nate brighter than the parking lights.) Daytime running lights are not
designed for use at night.
● When the turn signal indicators are flashing, the daytime running light on
the side that the turn signals are flashing will turn off.
● When the emergency flashers are flashing, both daytime running lights
will turn off.
● 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.
