SWITCHES
17 Daytime Running Light System (Canada only)
The headlights turn on when the parking brake is released with
the engine started, even with the light switch in the “OFF”
position. They will not go off until the ignition switch is turned
off.
To turn on the other exterior lights and instrument panel lights,
twist the knob to the first clickstop.
Under the daytime running light system, the headlights turn on
at reduced intensity. Twist the knob to the second clickstop to
turn to full intensity for driving at night.
When setting the knob to the third clickstop (“AUTO”), the
headlights will automatically adjust to full intensity and / or turn
on the other lights depending on the darkness of the
surroundings. Likewise, as the surroundings become brighter,
the headlights will turn to reduced intensity, ultimately turning
off the other lights.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not
leave the lights on longer than necessary when the
engine is not running.
HEADLIGHT DIMMER AND TURN
SIGNAL SWITCH
For high beam, push the lever forward. Pull it back for low
beam. For the headlight flasher, pull it further back.
A blue light in the instrument cluster indicates high beam or
headlight flasher is on.
The headlight flasher works even when the headlight switch is
off.

For signaling turns, move the lever up or down in the
conventional manner.
The ignition key must be in the “ON” position.
The turn signal is self−cancelling after a turn, but after a lane
change, you may have to cancel it by hand. You can also signal
a lane change by moving the turn signal lever partway and
holding it there. If the green light in the instrument cluster
flashes faster than normal, it indicates that the front or rear turn
signal bulb has burned out. If this indicator light does not come
on, the fuse or the indicator light itself has probably failed. You
may change headlight beam even while the turn signal lights
are flashing.
FOG LIGHT SWITCH
To turn on the fog lights, turn the switch to the “ON”
position. The fog lights come on only when the headlights
are on low beam.

EMERGENCY FLASHER SWITCH
To turn on the emergency flashers, push the switch.
All the turn signal lights will flash. The emergency flashers will
work with the engine running or off and with or without the
ignition key.
Turn on the emergency flashers to warn other drivers if you
must stop your vehicle where it might be a traffic hazard.
Always pull your vehicle as far off the road as possible.
The turn signal light switch will not work when the emergency
flashers are in operation.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not
leave the switch on longer than necessary when the
engine is not running.
SEAT HEATER SWITCHES
The seat heater has two switches one marked “L” (for the
left seat) and the other marked “R” (for the right seat).
Push these switches to turn the respective seat heater on,
and push the switches again to turn them off.
The ignition key must he in the “ON” position.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, turn the
switches on only when the engine is running.
