When the DRL are on, only your DRL lamps will be on.
The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won’t be on.
The instrument panel won’t be lit up either.
When it begins to get dark, the automatic headlamp
system will switch from DRL to the headlamps or the
last chosen headlamp setting that was used.
When you turn the headlamp knob to off, the headlamps
will go off, and your DRL lamps will illuminate,
provided it is not dark outside.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, set the parking
brake. Shifting the transmission into PARK (P) will
also allow you to idle the vehicle with the DRL off.
The DRL will stay off until you release the parking
brake or shift the transmission out of PARK (P).
This procedure applies only to vehicles first sold in
the United States.
When necessary, you may turn off the Automatic
Headlamp System and the Daytime Running Lamps
(DRL) feature by following these steps. When the system
is turned off, the headlights will not automatically come
on when it becomes dark outside.
1. With the ignition in RUN.
2. Press the DOME OVERRIDE button four times
within six seconds. After the fourth press of the
button, a chime will sound informing you the
system is off.
3. The system will revert back to the automatic mode
when the DOME OVERRIDE button is again
pressed four times within six seconds (a chime
will sound), or when the ignition is turned off
and on again.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.
