Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for others to see the front of your vehicle during the day. Fully functional daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles first sold in Canada. The DRL system makes the headlamps come on when the following conditions are met: The DRL system turns off when one of the following conditions are met: • The ignition is off. • The parking brake is on. • The high-beam headlamps are on. • The low-beam headlamps are on. • The flash-to-pass feature is used. The regular headlamp system should be used when needed. • The ignition is on. • The exterior lamp band is in OFF or in the parking lamp position. • The parking brake is released. An indicator light on instrument panel cluster comes on when the DRL system is on. When the DRL system is on, the taillamps, sidemarker lamps, parking lamps and instrument panel lights do not come on unless the exterior lamps control is turned to the parking lamp or headlamp position. Fog Lamps For vehicles with fog lamps, they are controlled by the # band located on the middle of the turn signal/multifunction lever. To use the fog lamps, the ignition must be turned to ON/RUN and the low-beam headlamps or parking lamps must be on. Turn the band to # to turn the fog lamps on. The band automatically returns to its starting position when released. The fog lamp indicator light comes on in the instrument panel cluster. See Fog Lamp Light on page 3-35. 3-14
