BEFORE DRIVING
57L20-03E
To turn the lights on or off, twist the knob
on the end of the lever. There are four posi-
tions:
OFF (1)
All lights are off.
AUTO (2)
This function works when the ignition
mode has been changed to “ON” by press-
ing the engine switch. The headlights and
position lights are turned on and off auto-
matically according to the amount of out-
side light detected by a sensor. They go
out automatically when you change the
ignition mode to “ACC” or “LOCK” by
pressing the engine switch.
• The light sensor (5) for sensing the
amount of outside light is installed on the
upper part of the windshield. It also
serves as the rain sensor for the rain-
sensing wipers.
NOTE:
• Avoid covering the light sensor area of
the windshield with a sticker. The sticker
may impair the performance of the sen-
sor and make the system unable to con-
trol operation of the lights correctly.
• If you changed the ignition mode to “ON”
by pressing the engine switch and the
“AUTO” position remains selected, the
headlights and position lights come on
automatically as the outside gets dark
even with the engine not running. Leav-
ing the lights lit for a long time may lead
to a completely discharged battery.
(3)
Front position lights, tail lights, license
plate light and instrument lights are on, but
headlights are off.
(4)
Front position lights, tail lights, license
plate light, instrument lights and headlights
are on.
CAUTION
If the light sensor area of the wind-
shield is covered with mud, ice, or
other similar substances, the head-
lights and position lights may be
turned on even when it is still light
outside. Before removing such sub-
stances from the windshield, always
set the wiper control lever to the
“OFF” position. If the lever is left in
the “AUTO” position, the wipers
could unexpectedly operate and
cause injury, and could also be dam-
aged.
