Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL)

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see the
front of the vehicle during the day.
Fully functional daytime running
lamps are required on all vehicles
first sold in Canada.

The DRL system comes on in
daylight when the following
conditions are met:

.

The ignition is on.

.

The exterior lamps control is in
the AUTO position.

.

The shift lever is not in P (Park).

.

The light sensor determines it
is daytime.

When the DRL are on, the taillamps,
sidemarker, instrument panel and
other lamps will not be on.

The automatic headlamp system
automatically switches from DRL to
the headlamps depending on the
darkness of the surroundings.

To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior
lamp control to

O

and then release

it. For vehicles first sold in Canada,
the transmission must be in the
P (Park) position, before the DRL
can be turned off.
