Daytime Running Lights
(DRL)
The daytime running lights turn on
automatically when the vehicle starts
moving.
They turn off when the parking brake is
engaged or the gear selector is shifted
to the Park (P) position (if equipped with
automatic transmission).
Note:In some markets, the daytime
running lights can be deactivated. For
markets that allow deactivation, refer to
“Personalization Features” in “Knowing
Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
High Beams
The headlights can be switched
between high and low beams by
moving the lever forward or backward.
When the headlight high-beams are on,
the
high beam indicator is
illuminated.
Flash To Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your
headlights by partially pulling the
headlight lever toward the steering
wheel. This will cause the high beam
headlights to turn on until the lever is
released.
The
high beam indicator in the
instrument cluster illuminates
simultaneously.
Automatic Lighting
When the headlight switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON, the light will sense the
surrounding lightness or darkness and
automatically turns the headlights, other
exterior lights and dashboard
illumination on or off.
Note: Do not shade the light sensor by
placing a sticker or a label on the
windshield. Otherwise the light sensor
will not operate correctly.
The light sensor also works as a rain
sensor for the auto-wiper control. Keep
hands and scrapers clear of the
windshield when the wiper lever is in
the AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON as fingers could be
pinched or the wipers and wiper blades
damaged when the wipers activate
automatically. If you are going to clean the windshield, be sure the wipers are
turned off completely when the engine
is running.
Note:
The headlights, other exterior lights
and dashboard lights may not turn off
immediately even if the surrounding
area becomes well-lit because the light
sensor determines that it is night time if
the surrounding area is continuously
dark for several minutes such as inside
long tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels,
or in indoor parking lots. In this case,
the lights turn off if the light switch is
turned to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched to ACC or the ignition is
switched off, the headlights, other
exterior lights and dashboard
illumination will turn off.
The dashboard lights can be
adjusted by rotating the knob in the
instrument cluster. The day/night mode
can be changed by rotating the knob
until a beep sound is heard.
The sensitivity of the automatic
lightsmaybechangedbyan
authorized dealer.
