Fog Lamps (If equipped)
[CF06100(ALL)12/95]
The fog lamps act as a supplement to the low beam headlamps
under limited visibility conditions such as rain, snow, dust or
fog.
[CF06200(ALL)12/95]
The fog lamps operate only when the low beam headlamps are
on. To operate the fog lamps, turn the headlamp control knob
to the second position (headlamps on) and pull the knob out.
An indicator lamp will glow when the fog lamps are on.

To turn off, push the headlamp control knob in.

[CF06700(ALL)01/96]
The Daytime Running Light (DRL) system is designed to turn
the high beam headlamps on, with a reduced light output and
without illuminating the high beam indicator lamp in the
instrument panel. The DRL system operates when all of the
following conditions are met:
[CF06750(ALL)04/96]
■
The vehicle’s parking brake is fully released.
[CF06800(ALL)04/96]
■
The vehicle is “running.”
[CF06900(ALL)04/96]
■
The headlamp system is in the OFF position.
*
[CF07000(ALL)03/96]
The high beam indicator light on the instrument cluster will not
be on.
[CF07100(ALL)12/95]
A flashing high beam light in the instrument cluster indicates a
failure in the DRL system circuit, like a burnt bulb or fuse.
