The control on the driver's side of your instrument panel operates the exterior
lamps.
(Exterior Lamps): Turn the knob, located to the right
of this symbol, to choose one of the four exterior lamp positions.
(Off): Turn the knob to this position
to turn off all exterior lamps, including the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL). This is
a momentary control that springs back to AUTO when released. Vehicles first sold in
Canada do not have the DRL disable feature available. Vehicles first sold in Canada
cannot turn off the DRL unless the following conditions are met:
| • | The vehicle has an automatic transmission. |
| • | The gear position is in PARK (P). |
| • | The headlamp switch is turned to the Off position. |
Turn the knob to this position to automatically
turn on the headlamps at normal brightness, together with the following:
| • | Instrument Panel Lights |
Due to the momentary switch design, the automatic headlamps may be disabled
even if the control is in the AUTO position.
To enable automatic lighting, do any of the following:
| • | Turn the headlamp control from AUTO to off and release the control. It
will return back to the AUTO position by itself. |
| • | Turn the headlamp control from the parking lamp or headlamp position to
AUTO. |
To disable automatic lighting, do any of the following:
| • | Turn the headlamp control from AUTO to off and release the control. It
will return back to the AUTO position by itself. |
