Battery saver systemY51D-V-E01-2545EC0C-F5FC-4D5B-A65F-0CBE6414EDA7A chime will sound when the driver side
door is opened with the light switch in the
orposition and the ignition switch
in the ACC, OFF or LOCK position.
When the headlight switch is in the
or
position while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights will automati-
cally turn off after a period of time when
the ignition switch has been pushed to the
OFF position.
When the headlight switch remains in the
orposition after the lights
automatically turn off, the lights will turn
on when the ignition switch is pushed to
the ON position.
CAUTION
. When you turn on the headlight switch
again after the lights automatically turn
off, the lights will not turn off auto-
matically. Be sure to turn the light
switch to the OFF position when you
leave the vehicle for extended periods of
time, otherwise the battery will be
discharged. .
Never leave the light switch on when the
engine is not running for a period of time
even if the headlights turn off automa-
tically.
Daytime running light system (Ca-
nada only)
Y51D-V-E01-96A89700-E692-4881-A9D1-74D83EDD550CThe daytime running lights automatically
illuminate when the engine is started with
the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to the
position for full illumination when
driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running
lights do not illuminate. The daytime
running lights illuminate once the parking
brake is released. The daytime running
lights will remain on until the ignition
switch is pushed to the OFF position.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
Y51D-V-E01-5CF3AE2B-E740-40B3-9176-1D2088411228The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
will automatically adjust the headlights
(low beam) toward the turning direction to improve the driver’s view. When the head-
light switch is ON and the driver operates
the steering wheel in a turn, the AFS
system will be activated.
The AFS will operate:
.
when the headlight switch is ON.
. when the shift lever is in any position
other than P (Park) or R (Reverse).
. when the vehicle is driven at above 16
MPH (25 km/h) for the left-side head-
light. Note that the right-side low beam
headlight will swivel but the left side
will not swivel when the vehicle is
below 3 MPH (5 km/h) and the steering
wheel is turned. The vehicle must attain
a speed above 16 MPH (25 km/h)
before AFS activates the left-side head-
light.
