with the taillamps, sidemarker, parking
lamps, and the instrument panel lights. The
radio lights will also be dim.
To turn off the automatic headlamp system,
turn the exterior lamp control to
Pand
then release it.
The vehicle has a light sensor on the top of
the instrument panel that controls the
automatic headlamp system. Do not cover
the sensor, otherwise the headlamps may
come on when they are not needed.
The system may also turn on the headlamps
when driving through a parking garage,
heavy overcast weather, or a tunnel. This is
normal. There is a delay in the transition between
the daytime and nighttime operation of the
automatic headlamp system so that driving
under bridges or bright overhead street
lights does not affect the system. The
automatic headlamp system is only affected
when the light sensor detects a change in
lighting lasting longer than the delay.
If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system will come on
immediately. Once the vehicle leaves the
garage, there is a slight delay for the
automatic headlamp system to change if it
is bright enough outside. During that delay,
the instrument cluster may not be as bright
as usual. Make sure the instrument panel
brightness control is in the full bright
position. See
Instrument Panel Illumination
Control 0123.
To idle the vehicle with the automatic
headlamp system off, turn the control to
the off position.
The headlamps will also stay on after you
exit the vehicle.
The regular headlamp system can be turned
on when needed.
Lights On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are activated in
daylight with the engine on, and the
exterior lamp control is in AUTO, the
headlamps, parking lamps, and other
exterior lamps come on. The transition time
for the lamps coming on varies based on
wiper speed. When the wipers are not
operating, these lamps turn off. Move the
exterior lamp control to
Por;to
disable this feature.
Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL)
On vehicles with the AFL system, the
headlamps move horizontally while turning
the steering wheel to provide greater road
illumination in curves.
To activate AFL, set the exterior lamp
control to the AUTO or
2position.
To adjust the AFL setting, see Vehicle
Personalization 0110.
