Reminder
If a door is open, a reminder chime
sounds when the headlights or
parking lights are manually turned on
and the ignition is off. To turn off the
chime, turn the exterior lamp control
to off or AUTO and then back on,
or close and re-open the door. In the
AUTO mode, the headlights turn off
once the ignition is off or remain on
until the headlight delay ends (if
enabled in the DIC). See

Headlamp Main/
Dipped-Beam Changer
Push the indicator lever toward the
instrument panel to change the
headlights from dipped to main beam.
Pull the indicator lever toward you
and release it to return to dipped
beam headlights.
When the main beam headlights are
on, this indicator light on the
instrument cluster will also be on.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you use the
main-beam headlamps to signal a
driver in front of you that you want to
pass. It works even if the headlamps
are in the automatic position.
To use it, pull the indicator stalk
toward you, then release it.
If the headlamps are in the automatic
position or on dipped beam, the
main-beam headlamps will turn on.
They will stay on as long as you hold
the stalk toward you. The main-beam
indicator on the instrument cluster
will come on. Release the stalk to
return to normal operation.
Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL)
DRL can make it easier for others to
see the front of the vehicle during
the day.
