Headlamps


Object Number: 1223904  Size: B3

You'll find the headlamp control switch here, on the turn signal/multifunction lever.

The headlamp switch controls the following lighting systems:

    • Headlamps
    • Parking Lamps
    • Sidemarker Lamps
    • License Plate Lamps
    • Instrument Panel Lights

Here's how your lamp system works:

    • Rotate the lever up one notch to turn on the parking lamps, side marker lamps, license plate lamps, and instrument panel lighting.
    • Rotate the lever all the way up to turn on the headlamps and the instrument panel lighting.
    • If the parking lamps or headlamps are left on with the ignition off, and the driver's door open, a chime will sound to remind you to turn your headlamp switch to the "OFF" position.

Flash-to-Pass

Pull the lever toward you to momentarily switch to high beam position (to signal that you are going to pass). When you release the lever, the high beam lamps will turn off.
