If it’s dark enough outside and the Twilight Sentinel
control is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message
will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
This message informs the driver that turning on the
exterior lamps is recommended even though the DRL
are still illuminated (it’s become dark enough outside to
require the headlamps and/or other exterior lamps).
Turning on the Twilight Sentinel, the headlamp switch
or the fog lamp switch will remove the HEADLAMPS
SUGGESTED message.
To idle your vehicle at night with the DRL off,
turn off the Twilight Sentinel and shift the transaxle
into PARK (P). Placing your vehicle in PARK (P)
disables the DRL. The DRL will stay off until you
shift out of PARK (P).
To drive your vehicle at night with the DRL off, turn
off the Twilight Sentinel and manually turn on the
parking lamps.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.
Fog Lamps (If Equipped)
Use the fog lamps for better
vision in foggy or misty
conditions. When you press
the fog lamp button, a fog
lamp symbol located in the
instrument panel will come
on to indicate that the fog
lamps and the parking
lamps are on.
Press the button again to turn them off.
If you turn on the high
-
beam headlamps, the fog lamps
will turn off. They’ll turn back on again when you
switch to low
-
beam headlamps.
When the Twilight Sentinel is on and the fog lamp
switch is activated, the fog lamps will remain on as well
as the headlamps and parking lamps.
