is a useful feature, in that DRL can make your vehicle more
visible to pedestrians and other drivers during daylight hours. DRL is
required
on new vehicles sold in Canada.
The high beam headlights will come on at reduced brightness
in daylight
when:
The ignition is on,
The headlight switch is off, and
0 The parking brake is released.
When you turn
on your headlights, the DRL will switch off and the exterior
lights
will come on. When you turn off the headlights, the exterior lights
will go out and the high beams will change to the reduced brightness of
DRL again.
The DRL indicator light
on the instrument panel will go on whenever the
DRL
is on. This light means that only the DRL is on. When you turn on
your exterior lights, this light
will go out.
