Daytime running light system
● The daytime running lights illuminate using the same lights as the parking
lights and illuminate brighter than the parking lights.
● To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers during daytime driving,
the daytime running lights turn on automatically when all of the following
conditions are met. (The daytime running lights are not designed for use
at night.)
• The engine is running
• The select lever is shifted out of P (Vehicles with an automatic trans-
mission)
• The parking brake is released
• The headlight switch is off or in the “AUTO”
* position
*: When the surroundings are bright
The daytime running lights remain on after they illuminate even if the parking
brake is set again.
● 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 hazard warning flashers ar e 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.
■ Headlight control sensor
Headlight control sensor is located on the
passenger's side.
The sensor may not function properly if
an object is placed on the sensor, or any-
thing 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.
