Daytime Running Lamps 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. Fully functional daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles first sold in Canada. The DRL system will make your headlamps come on at a reduced brightness when the three following conditions are met: When the DRL are on, only your headlamps will be on at a reduced brightness. The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won't be on. Your instrument panel won't be lit up either. When you move the exterior lamps control to the headlamp position, your DRL will go off and your headlamps will come on. The other lamps that come on with your headlamps will also come on. When it begins to get dark, the headlamps will automatically switch from DRL to the regular headlamps. See "Automatic Headlamp System" following. When you turn the exterior lamp control to off, the regular lamps will go off and your headlamps will change to the reduced brightness of DRL provided it is not dark outside. DRL will also come on if only the parking lamps are being used. As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular headlamp system when you need it. • The ignition is on with the engine running, • the exterior lamps control is off or the parking lights are on, and • the parking brake is released. 3-14
