When the light switch is in either of

these positions, the lights on

indicator comes on as a reminder.

This indicator stays on if you leave

the lights on and turn the ignition

switch to the ACCESSORY (I) or

LOCK (0) position.

To switch from low

beams to high beams, push the left

lever forward until you hear a click.

The blue high beam indicator will

come on (see page

). Pull it back

to return to low beams. To flash the

high beams, pull the lever back

lightly, then release it. The high

beams stay on as long as you hold

the lever back.

Even with the automatic lighting

feature turned on, we recommend

that you turn on the lights manually

when driving at night or in a dense

fog, or when you enter dark areas

such as long tunnels or parking

facilities.

To change the ‘‘AUTO LIGHT

SENSITIVITY’’ setting, see page

.

Do not leave the light switch in

AUTO if you will not be driving the

vehicle for an extended period (a

week or more). You should also turn

off the lights if you plan to leave the

engine idling or off for a long time.

The automatic lighting

feature turns on the headlights and

all other exterior lights, when it

senses low ambient light.

To turn on automatic lighting, turn

the light switch to AUTO at any time.

The lights will come on automatically

when the outside light level becomes

low (at dusk, for example). The

lights on indicator comes on as a

reminder. The lights and indicator

will turn off automatically when the

system senses high ambient light.

The lights will remain on when you

turn off the ignition switch. They will

turn off automatically when you

remove the key and open the driver’s

door. To turn them on again, either

turn the ignition switch to the ON

(II) position or turn the light switch

to the

position.
