Headlight aiming control (if so

equipped)

Depending on the number of occupants in the

vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight

axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is

traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may

directly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle

ahead or the windshield of the oncoming vehicle.

The light axis can be lowered with the operation

of the switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,

the lower the axis.

When traveling with no heavy load or on a flat

road, select position 0.

WARNING

Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview
mirror of the vehicle ahead or the wind-
shield of the oncoming vehicle, the
driver of these vehicles may have diffi-
culty driving because of the brightness.
Use the headlight aiming control switch
to lower the light axis. See earlier in this
section for information on xenon head-
lights.

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM

The daytime running lights automatically illumi-

nate when the engine is started with parking

brake released. The daytime running lights op-

erate with the headlight switch in the OFF

The daytime running lights may come on after

turning the key to the OFF position and immedi-

ately turning it to the ON position. This is not a

malfunction.
The daytime running lights will be turned off

when the headlight switch is turned to the AUTO

posi-

tion or when the fog light is turned on.
The daytime running lights will remain on until

the ignition switch is turned to the ACC or OFF

position.

WARNING

When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle are
not on. It is necessary at dusk to turn on
your headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself and
others.
