2-3. Operating the lights and wipers

Daytime running light system (if equipped)

To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the headlights turn on
automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever the engine is started and
the parking brake is released. Daytime running lights are not designed for
use at night.

Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help
improve fuel economy.

Light reminder buzzer

A buzzer sounds when the key is removed and the driver's door is opened
while the lights are turned on.

NOTICE

To prevent battery discharge

Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the engine is not run-
ning.
