Lamps On Reminder A reminder chime will sound when your headlamps or parking lamps are manually turned on and your ignition is in OFF, LOCK or ACCESSORY. To disable the chime, turn the thumbwheel all the way down. In the automatic mode, the headlamps turn off once the ignition key is in OFF. 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: Puddle Lamps Your vehicle is equipped with puddle lamps to help you see the area near the base of the front doors when it is dark out. The puddle lamps will illuminate when a door is opened or when you press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter. You can program the puddle lamps not to come on if you choose. See "Secondary Information Center" in the Index for more information.
