When it is bright enough outside, the regular lamps go off, and the front turn signal lamps take over. If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the automatic headlamp system comes on immediately. Once you leave the garage, it takes about one minute for the automatic headlamp system to change to DRL if it is light outside. During that delay, the instrument panel cluster might not be as bright as usual. Make sure the instrument panel brightness knob is in the full bright position. See Instrument Panel Brightness on page 170 for more information. If it is dark enough outside and the exterior lamp control is off, a HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message displays on the Driver's Information Center (DIC). This message informs the driver that turning on the exterior lamps is recommended. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 206. Turn the exterior lamp control off a second time, or turn on the headlamps to turn off the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message in the DIC. If the parking lamps or the fog lamps were turned on instead, the HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED message continues to display. As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular headlamp system when needed. Adaptive Forward Lighting System The Adaptive Forward Lighting System (AFS) swivels the headlamps horizontally to provide greater road illumination while turning. AFS will operate when the vehicle speed is greater than 2 mph (3 km/h). AFS will not operate when the transmission is in REVERSE (R). AFS is not immediately operable after starting the vehicle; driving a short distance is required to calibrate the AFS. To enable AFS, set the exterior lamp switch on the multifunction lever to the AUTO position. Moving the switch out of the AUTO position will deactivate the system. See Exterior Lamps on page 164. 167
