Daytime
Running
Lamps (Canada Only)
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.
A
light sensor
on
top of the instrument panel makes the
DRL work,
so
be sure
it
isn’t covered.
The
DRL system
will make your low-beam headlamps conle on
at
a
reduced brightness when:
0
The ignition is
ON,
The
headlamp switch is
OFF,
and
0
The transaxle

lit
up either.
When it’s dark enough outside, your
low

headlamps will change
to
full
brightness automatically.
The
other lamps that come on
with your headlamps
will
also
come on.
When it’s bright enough outside, the regular lamps
will
go
off, and your low
beam headlamps will change to the
reduced brightness of DRL.
To idle your vehicle with
the
DRL off, shift the
transaxle into PARK
(P).
The DRL
will
stay
off
until
you shift out of
PARK
(P).
If
it’s dark, you
must
also
move the Twilight Sentinel control to
MIN.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on
the regular
headlamp system when
you
need
it.
