Daytime Running Lamps

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 will come on when the following
conditions are met:

The ignition is on,

the exterior lamps control is in AUTO,

the transmission is not in PARK (P), and

the light sensor determines it is daytime.

When the DRL are on, only your DRL lamps will be on.
The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won’t be
on. The instrument panel won’t be lit up either.

When it begins to get dark, the automatic headlamp
system will switch from DRL to the headlamps.

As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.
