UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 69 Do not use abrasive cleaning components, solvents, steel wool or other abrasive materials to clean the lenses. Daytime Running Lights (Canada Only) The headlights on your vehicle will illuminate when the engine is started. This provides a constant Lights ON condition until the ignition is turned OFF. The lights illuminate at less than 50% of normal intensity. If the parking brake is applied the Daytime Running Lights will turn off. Lights-on Reminder If the headlights, parking lights, courtesy lights or cargo lights are left on, after the ignition is turned off, a chime will sound when the driver's door is opened. Fog Lights - If Equipped The foglights are turned ON by placing the headlight rotary control in the parking light or headlight position and pulling out the headlight rotary control. The fog lights will operate only when the parking lights are ON or when the vehicle headlights are ON low beam. An indicator light located left of the switch will illuminate when the fog lights are on. The fog lights will turn off 3 Your vehicle is equipped with plastic headlight lenses that are lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage than glass headlights. Plastic is not as scratch resistant as glass and therefore different lens cleaning procedures must be followed. To minimize the possibility of scratching the lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with a mild soap solution followed by rinsing.
