Exterior Lamps
The lamp controls
are located on the
instrument panel.
They control these systems:
D Headlamps
D Taillamps
D Parking Lamps
D License Lamps
D Sidemarker Lamps
D Instrument Panel Lights
D Courtesy Lamps
D Cornering Lamps
If you pull the knob out halfway, it will turn on your
parking lamps and your other operating lamps. If you
pull the knob all the way out, your headlamps will then
come on.
Push the knob in all the way to turn off the lamps.
A warning chime will sound if you open the driver’s
door when you turn the ignition switch to OFF, LOCK
or ACCESSORY with the lamps on.
Daytime Running Lamps / Automatic
Headlamp Control
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the day.
DRL can be helpful in many different driving conditions,
but they can be especially helpful in the short periods after
dawn and before sunset. Fully functional daytime running
lights are required on all vehicles first sold in Canada.
A light sensor on top of the instrument panel makes the
DRL work, so be sure it isn’t covered.
The DRL system will make your front turn signal lamps
come on when:
D The ignition is on,
D the headlamp switch is off and
D the parking brake is released.
