If you turn the ignition switch to the

LOCK (0) position with the

headlight switch on, but do not open

the door and get out, the lights turn

off after 10 minutes (3 minutes, if

the switch is in the ‘‘AUTO’’

position).

The lights turn on again when you

unlock or open the driver’s door.

If you unlock the door, but do not

open it within 15 seconds, the lights

go off. With the driver’s door open,

you will hear a lights-on reminder

chime.

This feature turns off the headlights,

all other exterior lights, and the

instrument panel lights within 15

seconds after you remove the key

and close the driver’s door.

To change the ‘‘HEADLIGHT AUTO

OFF TIMER’’ setting, see page

.

The automatic lighting off feature

activates if you leave the headlight

switch in the ‘‘

’’ or ‘‘

’’

position or if the lights are turned on

by setting the switch in the ‘‘AUTO’’

position, and you remove the key,

then open and close the driver’s door.

If you see a ‘‘CHECK DRL

SYSTEM’’ message on the multi-

information display, there is a

problem with the daytime running

light system. Take your vehicle to a

dealer to have it checked.

When the multi-information display

shows a ‘‘DRL OFF’’ message, the

daytime running lights are off.

Follow the procedure in the left

column to turn them on.
