■Daytime running light system
● For the U.S.A.: To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the
daytime running lights turn on automatically whenever the hybrid system
is started and the parking brake is released.
Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch. (if
equipped)
For Canada: To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the day-
time running lights turn on automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever
the hybrid system is started and the parking brake is released. Daytime
running lights are not designed for use at night.
● For Canada: Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running
light system offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it
can help improve fuel economy.

■Headlight control sensor (if equipped)
■ Automatic light off system
● When the headlights come on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30
seconds after a door is opened and closed if the “POWER” switch is
turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned off. (The lights turn off immedi-
ately if on the key is pressed after all the doors are locked.)
● When only the tail lights come on: The tail lights turn off automatically if
the “POWER” switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned off and
the driver’s door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the “POWER” switch to ON mode, or turn the
light switch off once and then back to or .
The sensor may not function properly if
an object is placed on the sensor, or any-
thing that blocks the sensor is affixed to
the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
Air conditioning operation may also be
interrupted.
