lever all the way toward you, then
release it.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
DRL can make it easier for others to see the
front of your vehicle during the day. DRL are
required on all vehicles first sold in Canada.
A light sensor on top of the instrument
panel makes the DRL work, so be sure it is
not covered.
The dedicated DRL will come on when all of
the following conditions are met:
.The ignition is on.
.The exterior lamps control is in AUTO,
or has been briefly turned to
Pto turn
the automatic light control on again.
.The light sensor determines it is daytime.
.The transmission is not in P (Park).
When the DRL are on, the headlamps,
taillamps, sidemarker lamps, instrument
panel lights, and other lamps will not be on. The headlamps automatically change from
DRL to the regular headlamps depending on
the darkness of the surroundings. The other

position and then release. For vehicles first sold in Canada, the transmission must be in
P (Park), before the automatic headlamp
system can be turned off.
The vehicle has a light sensor on the top of

sensor, otherwise the system will come on
whenever the ignition is on.
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
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) and the

lights does not affect the system. The DRL
and automatic headlamp system will only
