Controls and features Daytime running lamps (DRL) (if equipped) The daytime running light system turns the headlamps on, with a reduced light output, when: • the ignition is in RUN, • the transmission is not in P (Park), and • the headlamp system is not turned on by another feature such as using the headlamp control or Autolamp. Always remember to turn on your headlamps at dusk or during inclement weather. The Daytime Running Light (DRL) System does not activate your 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. The Daytime Running Light (DRL) system will automatically illuminate the tail lamps and parking lamps at dusk (when the headlamp control is in the OFF position). Since the instrument panel will not be illuminated, turn on the headlamps using the headlamp control. High beams • Push forward to activate. • Pull toward you to deactivate.
