The headlamps automatically
change from DRL to the regular
headlamps depending on the
darkness of the surroundings. The
other lamps that come on with the
headlamps will also come on.
When it is bright enough outside,
the headlamps will go off and the
DRL will come on.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when needed.
Do not cover the light sensor on top
of the instrument panel because it
works with the DRL.
Lights On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are
activated in daylight with the engine
on, and the exterior lamp control is
in AUTO, the headlamps, parking
lamps and other exterior lamps
come on. The transition time for the
lamps coming on varies based on
wiper speed. When the wipers are
not operating, these lamps turn off.
Move the exterior lamp control to
P
or
;
to disable this feature.
Delayed Headlamps
Delayed headlamps provide a
period of exterior lighting as you
leave the area around the vehicle.
This feature is activated when the
headlamps are on due to the
automatic headlamps control feature
and when the ignition is turned off.
The headlamps remain on until the
exterior lamp control is moved to the
parking lamps position or until the
pre-selected delayed headlamp
lighting period has ended.
If the ignition is turned off with
the exterior lamp control in
the
;
or
5
position, the delayed
headlamps cycle will not occur.
To disable the delayed headlamps
feature or change the time of delay,
see
Vehicle Personalization on
page 5-40
.
Adaptive Forward
Lighting (AFL)
Vehicles with the AFL System have
headlamps that swivel to the left or
right when making a turn to provide
better lighting. To enable AFL, set
the exterior lamp switch to the
AUTO position. Move the switch out
of the AUTO position to turn off the
system. See
Exterior Lamp Controls
on page 6-1
.
AFL operates when the vehicle
speed is greater than 3 km/h
(2 mph). AFL does not operate
when the transmission is in
R (Reverse). AFL is not immediately
operable after starting the vehicle;
driving a short distance is required
to calibrate the AFL.
