short delay between wipes. This can be very useful
in light rain or snow. Turn the band to choose the delay
time. The closer to the top of the lever, the shorter
the delay.

turn the band away from you to the rst solid band past
the delay settings. For high-speed wiping, turn the
band further, to the second solid band past the delay
settings. To stop the wipers, move the band to off.

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the
day. DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the
short periods after dawn and before sunset. Fully
functional Daytime Running Lamps are required on
all vehicles rst sold in Canada.
3-15

A light sensor on top of the instrument panel makes
the DRL work, so be sure it is not covered. The
DRL system will make front parking and turn signal
lamps come on in daylight when the following conditions
are met:

When the DRL are on, only your front turn signal lamps
will be on. Your instrument panel will not be lit up.

will come on automatically. When it is bright enough
outside, the exterior lamps will turn off and the DRL will
turn on. Of course, you may still turn on the headlamps
any time you need to.
If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the automatic
headlamp system will come on immediately. Once
you leave the garage, it will take approximately
30 seconds for the automatic headlamp system to
change to DRL if it is light outside. During that delay,
your instrument panel cluster may not be as bright
as usual. Make sure your instrument panel brightness
control is in the full bright position. SeeInstrument
Panel Brightness on page 3-16.To idle your vehicle with the DRL and automatic
headlamps off, toggle the exterior lamp control to off
