Headlights On Touring models AUTO The automatic lighting feature turns on the headlights, all other exterior lights, and the instrument panel lights when it senses low ambient light. To turn on the automatic lighting, turn the light switch to the AUTO position at any time. The lights will come on automatically when the outside light level becomes low (at dusk, for example). The lights on indicator comes on as a reminder. The lights and indicator turn off automatically when the system senses high ambient light. The lights turn off automatically when you turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (0) position. To turn them on again, either turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position, or turn the light switch to the position. Even with the automatic lighting feature turned on, we recommend that you turn on the lights manually when driving at night or in a dense fog, or when you enter dark areas such as long tunnels or parking facilities. SENSOR Instruments and Controls The automatic lighting feature is controlled by a sensor located on top of the dashboard. Do not cover this sensor or spill liquids on it. 137 2010 Odyssey
