To activate: • the ignition must be in the on position and • the headlamp control is in the off or parking lamp position. WARNING: Always remember to turn on your headlamps at dusk or during inclement weather. The Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) system does not activate the tail lamps and generally may not provide adequate lighting during these conditions. Failure to activate your headlamps under these conditions may result in a collision. PANEL DIMMER CONTROL Use to adjust the brightness of the instrument panel and all applicable switches in the vehicle during headlamp and parking lamp operation. • Move the control up or down to adjust the intensity of the panel lighting. • Move the control to the full upright position, past detent, to turn on the interior lamps. Note: If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is installed, the dimmer switch requires re-calibration. Rotate the dimmer switch from the full dim position to the full dome/on position to reset. This will ensure that your displays are visible under all lighting conditions. The dome lamp will not illuminate if the control switch is not rotated past the detent. 52 2011 Econoline (eco) Owners Guide, 3rd Printing USA (fus)
