CAUTION

Use the headlights with the engine run-
ning to avoid discharging the vehicle
battery.

Autolight system (if so equipped)

The autolight system allows the headlights to be
set so they turn on and off automatically. The
autolight system can:

● Turn on the headlights, front parking, tail,

license plate and instrument panel lights au-
tomatically when it is dark.

● The autolight system will turn on if the wind-

shield wipers make four continuous passes
(USA only).

● Turn off all the lights when it is light.

● Keep all the lights on a period of time after

you turn the key to OFF and all doors are
closed.

To turn on the autolight system:

1. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO posi-

tion

1

.

2. Turn the ignition key to ON.

3. The autolight system automatically turns the

headlights on and off.

Initially, if the ignition switch is turned OFF and a
door is opened and left open, the headlights
remain ON for a period of time. If another door is
opened while the headlights are on, then the
timer is reset.

To turn the autolight system off, turn the switch to

the OFF,

, or

position.

Be sure you do not put anything on top of
the autolight sensor located in the top side
of the instrument panel. The autolight sen-
sor controls the autolight; if it is covered,
the autolight sensor reacts as if it is dark
out and the headlights will illuminate. If
this occurs while parked with the engine off
and the key in the ON position, your vehi-
cle’s battery could become discharged.
