■Daytime running light system
●The daytime running lights illuminate using the same lights as the front turn

nate brighter than the front turn signal/parking lights (bulb t ype) or the park-
ing lights (LED type).
● To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers during dayti me driving,
the daytime running lights turn on automatically when all of the following
conditions are met. (The daytime running lights are not designe d for use at
night.)
• The engine is running
• The parking brake is released
• The headlights switch is in “AUTO”* (type A), “DRL” (type B) o r the
(type C) position
*: When the surroundings are bright
The daytime running lights remain on after they illuminate, even if the parking
brake is set again.
● Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running ligh t system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve
fuel economy.

tem)

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.

detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
