Daytime running lamps (DRL) (if equipped)
The daytime running light system turns the headlamps on, with a
reduced light output.
To activate:
•the ignition must be in the ON position and
•the headlamp system is in the OFF position or parking lamp position.
Always remember to turn on your headlamps at dusk or during
inclement weather. The Daytime Running Light (DRL) System
does not activate your tail lamps and generally may not provide
adequate lighting during these conditions. Failure to activate your
headlamps under these conditions may result in a collision.
Foglamp control (if equipped)
The foglamps can be turned on
when the ignition is in the ON
position and the headlamp control is
in either of the following positions:
•Parking lamps
•Low beams
Press the foglamp control to activate the foglamps.
Press the foglamp control again to deactivate the foglamps.
When the highbeams are activated, the foglamps will not operate.
PANEL DIMMER CONTROL

instrument panel and all applicable
switches in the vehicle during
headlamp and parklamp operation.
Move the control up or down to
adjust the intensity of the panel
lighting.

position, past detent, to turn on the interior lamps.

•any door is opened.
•the instrument panel dimmer
switch is held up until the
courtesy lamps come on.
•the remote entry controls are

BULB REPLACEMENT
Headlamp Condensation
The headlamps are vented to equalize pressure. When moist air enters
the headlamp(s) through the vents, there is a possibility that
condensation can occur. This condensation is normal and will clear
within 45 minutes of headlamp operation.
Replacing exterior bulbs
Check the operation of all the bulbs frequently.
Using the right bulbs
Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below. Headlamp bulbs
must be marked with an authorized “D.O.T.” for North America and an
“E” for Europe to assure lamp performance, light brightness and pattern
and safe visibility. The correct bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly
or void the lamp assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn
time.
