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 will switch off and
the DRL will come on.
To disable the DRL, turn the exterior
lamp control to the
5
or
;
position.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when needed.
Automatic Headlamp
System
When it is dark enough outside and
the exterior lamp control is in AUTO,
the automatic headlamp system will
turn on the headlamps at the normal
brightness along with other lamps
such as the tail lamps, sidemarker,
parking lamps, number plate lamps,
and the instrument panel lights. The
radio lights will also be dim.
To turn off the automatic headlamp
system, turn the exterior lamp
control to the off position and then
release.
The vehicle has a light sensor on
the top of the instrument panel. Do
not cover this sensor or the system
will come on whenever the ignition
is on.
The system may also turn on the
headlamps when driving through a
parking garage, heavy overcast
weather, or a tunnel. This is normal.
There is a delay in the transition
between the daytime and nighttime
operation of the Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL) and the automatic
headlamp systems so that driving
under bridges or bright overhead
street lights does not affect the
system. The DRL and automatic
headlamp system will only be
affected when the light sensor sees
a change in lighting lasting longer
than the delay.
If the vehicle is started in a dark
garage, the automatic headlamp
system comes on immediately. If it
is light outside when the vehicle
leaves the garage, there will be a
slight delay before the automatic
headlamp system changes to the
DRL. During that delay, the
instrument cluster may not be as
bright as usual. Make sure the
instrument panel brightness control
is in the full bright position. See

Lights On with Wipers
If the windscreen wipers are
activated in daylight with the engine
on, and the exterior lamp control is

lamps, and other exterior lamps
