To turn the lights on or off, twist the knob on the end of the lever. There are four positions:
OFF (1) All lights are off.
AUTO (2) This function works when the ignition switch is turned "ON". The headlights and position lights are turned on and off auto­matically according to the amount of out­side light detected by the sensor. They go out automatically when you turn the igni­tion switch to "ACC" or "LOCK" position.
The light sensor (5) for sensing the amount of outside light is installed on the passen­ger's seat side instrument panel.

A CAUTION
If the light sensor area of the wind­shield is covered with mud, ice1 or other similar substances, the head­lights and position lights may be turned on even when it is still light outside.
NOTE: Avoid covering the light sensor area of the windshield with a sticker. The sticker may impair the performance of the sen­sor and make the system unable to con­trol operation of the lights correctly. If you turned the ignition switch to "ON" position and "AUTO" position remains selected, the headlights and position lights come on automatically as it gets dark outside, even with the engine not running. Leaving the lights lit for a long time may lead to a completely dis­charged battery.
