Lighting The headlamps will remain on for a period of time after you switch the ignition off. You can adjust the time delay using the information display controls. See Information Displays (page 101). Note: If you switch autolamps on in conjunction with autowipers, low beam headlamps will illuminate automatically when the rain sensor activates the windshield wipers continuously. HEADLAMP EXIT DELAY After you switch the ignition off, you can switch the headlamps on by pulling the direction indicator lever toward you. You will hear a short tone. The headlamps will switch off automatically after three minutes with any door open or 30 seconds after the last door has been closed. You can cancel this feature by pulling the direction indicator toward you again or switching the ignition on. INSTRUMENT LIGHTING DIMMER Note: If you disconnect and connect the battery, or fully discharge and charge the battery, the illuminated components will switch to the maximum setting. DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (IF EQUIPPED) WARNING Always remember to switch your headlamps on in low light situations or during inclement weather. The system does not activate the tail lamps and may not provide adequate lighting during these conditions. Failure to activate your headlamps under these conditions may result in a collision. The system switches the signature lamps on in day light conditions. To switch the system on, switch the ignition on, and switch the lighting control to the off, autolamp, or parking lamp position.
