Headlamps
The lever on the left side of the steering column
operates the exterior lamps.
The exterior lamp switch has the following
four positions:
2
(Headlamps): This position turns on the
headlamps, parking lamps, and taillamps.
;
(Parking Lamps): This position turns on the
parking lamps and taillamps only.
AUTO (Automatic Headlamp System): This
position automatically turns on the Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL) during daytime, and the
headlamps, parking lamps, and taillamps at night.
P
(Off/On): This position is an Off/On switch for
the Automatic Headlamp System. In Canada, this
applies to vehicles with an automatic transmission
set to PARK (P) and manual transmission vehicles
with the parking brake engaged.
When operating in AUTO, a brief turn of the
switch to off/on will turn off the Automatic
Headlamp System. An AUTO LIGHTS OFF
message will display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC), if the vehicle has one, and a chime
will sound. Turning the switch to off/on again
will turn the Automatic Headlamp System back on.
An AUTO LIGHTS ON message will display on
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
The Automatic Headlamp System is always turned
on at the beginning of an ignition cycle for vehicles
with manual transmission. When the parking brake
is engaged, the automatic headlamps will turn off.
For vehicles with an automatic transmission, when
the shift lever is shifted out of PARK (P), the
Automatic Headlamp System will turn on. Shifting
the lever back to PARK (P) will turn off the
automatic headlamp system for vehicles with an
automatic transmission.
