ment.✽ ✽

NOTICEIf an indicator flash is abnormally
quick or slow, bulb may be burned

tion in the circuit.
Front fog light (if equipped) Fog lights are used to provide
improved visibility and avoid acci-
dents when visibility is poor due to
fog, rain or snow etc. The fog lights
will turn on when fog light switch (1)
is turned to ON after the headlight
switch is turned on.
To turn off the fog lights, turn the
switch to OFF.

The DRL system will make your
headlights turn OFF when:
