tion, the front parking, tail, license plate and
instrument panel lights come on.

tion, the headlights come on and all the other
lights remain on.
CAUTION

ning to avoid discharging the vehicle

Autolight system
The autolight system allows the headlights to be
set so they turn on and off automatically. The
autolight system can:
● Turn on the headlights, front parking, tail,
license plate and instrument panel lights au-
tomatically when it is dark.

To turn on the autolight system:1. Place the headlight switch in the AUTO po- sition
1.
2. Place ignition in the ON position.
3. The autolight system automatically turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position and a door is opened and left open, the
headlights remain ON for a period of time. If
another door is opened while the headlights are
on, then the timer is reset.
To turn the autolight system off, turn the switch to
the OFF,
,orposition. Be sure you do not put anything on top of
the autolight sensor located on the top side
of the instrument panel. The autolight sen-
sor controls the autolight; if it is covered,
the autolight sensor reacts as if it is dark
out and the headlights will illuminate. If
this occurs while parked with the engine off
and the ignition switch placed in the ON
position, your vehicle’s battery could be-
come discharged.Headlight beam select

ning lights will remain on until the ignition switch
