Turns the headlamps on with a reduced output.

To activate:
• the ignition must be in the ON position,
• the headlamp control is in the OFF, autolamps or parking lamp

position and

• the transmission must be out of the Park position.

Always remember to turn on your headlamps at dusk or during
inclement weather. The Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) system

does not activate the tail lamps and generally may not provide
adequate lighting during these conditions. Failure to activate your
headlamps under these conditions may result in a collision.

instrument panel and all applicable
switches in the vehicle during
headlamp and parklamp operation.

position, past detent, to turn on the
interior lamps.

AIMING THE HEADLAMPS

If your vehicle has been in an accident the alignment of your headlamps
should be checked by your authorized dealer.
