Lighting

When it is bright enough outside,
the headlamps will turn off or may
change to Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL).

The automatic headlamp system
turns off when the exterior lamp
control is turned to

O

or the

ignition is off.

Adaptive Forward
Lighting (AFL)

The Adaptive Forward Lighting
System (AFL) pivots the headlamps
horizontally to provide greater road
illumination while turning. To enable
AFL, set the exterior lamp switch to
the AUTO position. Moving the
switch out of the AUTO position
deactivates the system.
AFL operates when the vehicle
speed is greater than 3 km/h
(2 mph). AFL does not operate
when the transmission is in
R (Reverse). AFL is not immediately
operable after starting the vehicle;

driving a short distance is required
to calibrate the AFL. See Exterior
Lamp Controls on page 6‑2
.

Hazard Warning Flashers

|

Hazard Warning Flasher:

Press this button to make the front
and rear turn signal lamps flash on
and off. Press again to turn the
flashers off.

The hazard warning flashers turn on
automatically if the airbags deploy.

Turn and Lane-Change
Signals

Move the lever all the way up or
down to signal a turn.

An arrow on the instrument panel
cluster flashes in the direction of the
turn or lane change.

Raise or lower the lever until the
arrow starts to flash to signal a lane
change. Hold it there until the lane
change is completed. If the lever is
briefly pressed and released, the
turn signal flashes three times.
