Turn signals and headlights – Acura 2008 RL User Manual

Turn the fog lights on and off by
turning the switch next to the
headlight switch.
You can use the fog lights only when
the headlights are on low beam.
The headlights revert to normal
operation when you turn them on
with the switch.
With the light switch in the AUTO
position, you can also use the fog
lights when the headlights turn on
automatically. They will go off when
the headlights turn off.
With the headlight switch off, the
high beam headlights come on with
reduced brightness when you turn
the ignition switch to the ON (II)
position and release the parking
brake. They remain on until you turn
the ignition switch off, even if you
set the parking brake.
This feature turns off the headlights,
all other exterior lights, and the
instrument panel lights within 15
seconds after you turn the ignition
switch to the LOCK (0) position and
close the driver’s door.
To change the ‘‘HEADLIGHT AUTO
OFF TIMER’’ setting, see page
.
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.
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, turn the ignition switch to
the LOCK (0) position, then open
and close the driver’s door.
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).
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.
The lights turn on again when you
unlock or open the driver’s door.
