To idle your vehicle with the automatic headlamp

system off, set the parking brake while the ignition is

off. Then start your vehicle. The automatic headlamp

system will stay off until you release the parking brake,

or until you shift out of park.

You may be able to turn off your automatic headlamp

system. See “Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)” later in

this section for more information.

As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular

headlamp system when you need it.

Lamps On Reminder

A reminder tone will sound when your headlamps or

parking lamps are manually turned on, the driver’s door

is open and your ignition is in LOCK or ACCESSORY.

To turn the tone off, turn the knob all the way

counterclockwise. In the automatic mode, the headlamps

turn off once the ignition key is in LOCK.

Daytime Running Lamps

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier

for others to see the front of your vehicle during

the day. DRL can be helpful in many different

driving conditions, but they can be especially helpful

in the short periods after dawn and before sunset.

Fully functional daytime running lamps are required

on all vehicles first sold in Canada.

The DRL system will make your headlamps come on

at reduced brightness when the following conditions

are met:

The ignition is on,

the exterior lamps knob is in automatic

headlamp mode,

the light sensor detects daytime light, and

the transmission is not in PARK (P).

When the DRL are on, only your headlamps will be on.

The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won’t be on.

The instrument panel won’t be lit up either.
