Lamps On Reminder

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)

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.

The DRL system will make your low-beam headlamps come on in daylight when the following conditions are met:

An indicator light will come on when the DRL are on. See Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) Indicator Light .

When the DRL system is on, the taillamps, sidemarker lamps, parking lamps and instrument panel lights will not be illuminated unless you have turned the exterior lamps control to the parking lamp or headlamp position.

The DRL system will turn off when one of the following conditions are met:

As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular headlamp system when you need it.

Fog Lamps

If your vehicle has this feature, use your fog lamps for better visibility in foggy or misty conditions.

The band for the fog lamps is located in the middle of the turn signal/multifunction lever. While using the fog lamps, the ignition must be on as well as the parking lamps or low-beam headlamps.

Turn the band to ON to turn the fog lamps on. An indicator light will come on while the fog lamps are on. See Fog Lamp Light .

Turn the band to OFF to turn the fog lamps off.

The fog lamps will also turn off while the high-beam headlamps are turned on. When the high-beam headlamps are turned off, the fog lamps will turn on again.
