To turn the system ON, turn the end of the multifunction lever to the AUTO position (third detent). When the system is on, the headlight time delay feature is also on. This means the headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds after you turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position. To turn the Automatic System OFF, turn the end of the multifunction lever out of the AUTO position. NOTE: The engine must be running before the headlights will turn on in the automatic mode. Headlights with Wipers (Available with Auto Headlights Only) When this feature is active, the headlights will turn on approximately 10 seconds after the wipers are turned ON if the multifunction lever is placed in the AUTO position. In addition, the headlights will turn off when the wipers are turned OFF if they were turned ON by this feature. The Headlights with Wipers feature can be turned on or off through the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) (if equipped). Refer to "Headlights With Wipers," under "Personal Settings (Customer Programmable Features)" under "Electronic Vehicle Information Center" in Section 4.
