Lighting
A light sensor on top of the
instrument panel makes the DRL
work, so be sure it is not covered.
The DRL system makes the
low-beam headlamps come on at a
reduced brightness or for vehicles
with High Intensity Discharge (HID)
headlamps, the DRL lights will come
on when the following conditions
are met:
.
The ignition is in the ON/
RUN mode.
.
The exterior lamp control is
in AUTO.
.
The engine is running.
.
The vehicle is not in P (Park).
When the DRL are on, only the
low-beam headlamps, at a reduced
level of brightness, will be on. The
high-beam headlamps, taillamps,
sidemarker, instrument panel lamps,
and other lamps will not be on.
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 go off and the DRL
come on.

again, turn the exterior lamp control
to the off position and then release.

the DRL on that side will be off until
the turn signal goes off.
