Once it is bright enough outside,
the headlights and operating
lights will automatically turn back
off.
The lights may also turn on when
you drive through a low-light area.
Once you leave the low-light area,
it may take about one minute
before the automatic headlights
turn off. During this brief delay,
the instrument cluster may not be
as bright as usual. Make sure the
instrument light dimmer is set to
full brightness. See "Instrument
Light Dimmer" later in this section.
To temporarily disable the
automatic headlight system,
rotate the knob to the off position.
To turn the automatic headlight
system back on, rotate the knob to
the off position again, then release
it.
You should turn on the regular
headlight system when you need
it.
If the automatic headlight system
has the headlights turned on and
you turn the ignition off, the
exterior lights will stay on for a
period of delayed illumination
while you leave the vicinity of the
vehicle.
Use the Driver Information Center
to turn this feature on or off and to
increase or decrease the length of
the delayed illumination period.
