Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) make it easier
to
see the front of your
vehicle during the day. DRL can be helpful when it’s raining and
in
the
short periods after dawn and before sunset. Several countries, including
Canada, require DRL. Vehicles sold
in
the United States may have this
option.
The DRL system will make your high-beam headlamps come
on
at
a
reduced brightness when:
The ignition is
on,
0
The headlamp switch is off, and
0
The
parking brake
is
released.
When the DRL are on, only your high-beam headlamps will be on. The
taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won’t be
on.
Your instrument panel
won’t be lit up either.
When it begins
to
get dark, your DRL indicator light is a reminder
to
turn
your headlamp switch on. The other lamps that come
on
with your
headlamps will also come on.
When you turn the headlamp switch off, the regular lamps
will
go off, and
your
high-beam headlamps
will
change
to
the reduced brightness
of
DRL.
To idle your vehicle with
the
DRL off, set the parking brake. The DRL will
stay
off
until you release the parking brake.
Headamps-On Reminder
A
reminder
tone
will sound when your headlamps or parking lamps are
turned
on
and your ignition
is
in
OFF,
LOCK
or
ACC.
To
turn the tone
off,
press the
OFF
switch.
