Fog Lamps
Your vehicle has fog lamps. You can use them for
better vision in foggy or misty conditions.
Your parking lamps and/or low-beam headlamps must
be on for your fog lamps to work.

your instrument panel.

on to turn the fog lamps on. Press the button again
to turn them off. An indicator light will glow near
the button when the fog lamps are on.
Remember, fog lamps alone will not give off as much
light as your headlamps. Never use your fog lamps
in the dark without turning on the headlamps.The fog lamps will go off whenever the high-beam
headlamps come on. When the high beams go off,
the fog lamps will come on again.
The fog lamps will be cancelled after the ignition is
turned off. If you still want to use the fog lamps after
you restart the vehicle, you will need to press the
fog lamp button again.
Cargo Lamps

the cargo area of your vehicle or in the top-box
storage units.
Press the button, with this
symbol to turn the cargo
lamps on. Press the button
again to turn them off.

instrument panel cluster when the cargo lamps are on
and the ignition key is turned to run.
