Headlamps on Reminder
A warning chime will sound if the exterior lamp
control is left on in either the headlamp or parking
lamp position and the driver’s door is opened
with the ignition off. SeeLights On Reminder on
page 213for additional information.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
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.
The DRL system will make the turn signal lamps
come on when the following conditions are met:
It is still daylight and the ignition is in ON
or START.
The exterior lamp control is in off or AUTO and
the headlamps are off.
The automatic transmission is not in PARK (P).When DRL are on, only your front turn signal
lamps will be on. No other exterior lamps will
be on. Your instrument panel cluster will not be
lit up either.
When the exterior lamp control is in AUTO and it
is dark enough outside, the DRL will turn off
and the low-beam headlamps will turn on. When it
is bright enough outside, the low-beam headlamps
will go off, and the DRL will turn back on. 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 about
one minute 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 lever is in the full bright position.
SeeInstrument Panel Brightness on page 184.

Fog Lamps
Use the fog lamps for better vision in foggy or
misty conditions.
The fog lamp control is located on the turn
signal/multifunction lever.
-(Fog Lamps):The band with/or next to this
symbol is used to turn the fog lamps on and off.
The parking lamps must be on for the fog lamps
to work.
To operate the fog lamps:
To turn the fog lamps on, turn the fog lamp
band on the lever up to the dot and release
it. The band will return to its original position.
To turn the fog lamps off, turn the for lamp band
up to the dot and release it. The band will return
to its original position, and the fog lamps will
turn off. If the high-beam headlamps are turned
on, the fog lamps will also turn off. They will turn
back on again when you switch back to
low-beam headlamps.
Some localities have laws that require the
headlamps to be on along with the fog lamps.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the parking lamps or headlamps have been
left on, the exterior lamps will turn off about
10 minutes after the ignition is turned to OFF.
This protects against draining the battery in case
the headlamps or parking lamps have been
left on. The battery saver does not work if the
headlamps are turned on after the ignition is
turned to OFF.
If you need to leave the lamps on for more than
10 minutes, use the exterior lamp control to
turn the lamps back on.
