HEADLIGHT SWITCH
To turn the lights on, twist the knob on the end of the lever.
FIRST CLICKSTOP : Only the parking, tail, license plate, side
marker and instrument panel lights turn on.
SECOND CLICKSTOP : Headlights also turn on.
THIRD CLICKSTOP (“AUTO”) : The headlights and all other
lights automatically turn on depending on the darkness of the
surroundings.
When these lights are on, the indicator lights up in the
instrument cluster.
Manually twist the knob to the second clickstop to turn on
the headlights if they are needed immediately when
entering a dark tunnel, parking structure, etc.
The light control sensor is on top of the driver’s side instrument
panel.
Do not place anything on the instrument panel, and / or do not
affix anything on the windshield to block this sensor.
The lights automatically turn off when the driver’s door is
opened with the ignition turned off. To turn them on again, turn
the ignition key to the “ON” position or actuate the headlight
switch. If you are going to park for over one week, make sure
the headlight switch is off.
When the headlight switch is turned to the first or second
clickstop, the brightness of the instrument cluster will be
reduced slightly unless the instrument panel light control knob
is turned fully on.
