BEFORE DRIVING Auto-On Headlight System WARNING HIGH LOW (5) It takes about 5 seconds for the light sensor to react to a change in lighting conditions. To help avoid an accident due to reduced visibility, turn on your headlights before driving into a tunnel, parking structure or the like. NOTE: This system does not react to all types of ambient light. As the sensor is infrared type, it will not work correctly with ambient lights that do not contain infrared rays. 66J026 PASS 79K016 With the headlights on, push the lever forward to switch to the high beams or pull the lever toward you to switch to the low beams. When the high beams are on, a light on the instrument panel will come on. To momentarily activate the high beams as a passing signal, pull the lever slightly toward you and release it when you have completed the signal. The Auto-on headlight system automatically turns on all lights that are operated by the lighting control lever on the steering column, when the following four conditions are all met. Conditions for Auto-on headlight system operation: 1) It is dark around the light sensor (5). 2) The lighting control lever in the "AUTO" position. 3) The ignition switch is in the "ON" position. 4) The parking brake is released. This system is operated by the signal from the light sensor (5) on the right end of the instrument panel. Do not cover the sensor (5). If you do, the system will not work correctly. 2-77 79K21-03E
