vehicles in certain markets, the tail lights
will also turn on.
—In cool or damp weather, the inside of the
headlights, turn signals, and tail lights can
fog

between the inside and outside. They will
clear shortly after switching them on. This
does not affect the service life of the light-
ing.

and the ignition is switched off, the 00-} sym-
bol appears in the light switch module.
