Daytime Running

Lamps (DRL)

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can

make it easier for others to see

the front of your vehicle during the

day. DRL can be helpful in many

different driving conditions, but they

can be especially helpful in the

short periods after dawn and before

sunset. Fully functional daytime

running lamps are required on all

vehicles ﬁrst sold in Canada.

The DRL system makes the

low-beam headlamps turn on at a

reduced brightness when the

following conditions are met:

• The engine is running.

• The light sensor determines it is

night and the exterior lamps

control is in the off position.

• The light sensor determines it is

daytime.

The taillamps and other lamps will

be off.

The DRL turns off when the engine

is not running.

The regular headlamps or parking

lamps should be used when needed.

Delayed Headlamps

Vehicles with headlamp exit delay,

keep the headlamps and taillamps

on for 30 seconds.

To activate:

1. Turn the ignition off and remove

the key from the ignition.

2. Open the driver door.

3. Pull the multifunction lever

toward the steering wheel.

To deactivate, do either of the

following:

• Insert the key into the ignition.

• Pull the multifunction lever toward

the steering wheel again while

the driver door is open.

Fog Lamps

For vehicles with fog lamps, the

button is located on the instrument

panel, to the left of the steering

wheel.

The ignition and headlamps or

parking lamps must be on to use

the fog lamps. The fog lamps will not

turn on if the high beam headlamps

or ﬂash to pass are active.

# : Press to turn the fog lamps on

or off. An indicator light on the

instrument panel cluster comes on

when the fog lamps are on.

Some localities have laws that

require the headlamps to be

on along with the fog lamps.
