If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the automatic

headlamp system will come on immediately. Once

you leave the garage, it will take approximately

one minute for the automatic headlamp system to

change to DRL if it is light outside. During that delay,

your instrument panel cluster may not be as bright

as usual. Make sure your instrument panel brightness

control is in the full bright position. See “Instrument

Panel Brightness” under Interior Lamps on page 3-19.

Lamps On Reminder

If a door is open, a reminder chime will sound when

your headlamps or parking lamps are manually turned

on and your key is out of the ignition. To turn off

the chime, turn the headlamp switch to off or AUTO and

then back on. In the automatic mode, the headlamps

turn off once the ignition is in LOCK and the headlamps

on at exit delay ends (if enabled in the DIC).

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 come on when the following

conditions are met:

• The ignition is on,

• the exterior lamps control is in AUTO,

• the transmission is not in PARK (P), and

• the light sensor determines it is daytime.

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

The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won’t be

on. The instrument panel won’t be lit up either.

When it begins to get dark, the automatic headlamp

system will switch from DRL to the headlamps.

As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular

headlamp system when you need it.
