autolight system can:
● Turn on the headlights, front parking, tail,
license plate and instrument panel lights au-
tomatically when it is dark.
● Turn off all the lights when it is light.
● Keep all the lights on for 45 seconds after
you turn the key to OFF and all doors are
closed.
To turn on the autolight system:
1. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO posi-

opened during the 5 minutes, then the 5 minute
timer is reset.

sensor controls the autolight; if it is cov-

dark out and the headlights will illuminate.
If this occurs while parked with the engine
off and the switch in the ON position, your
vehicle’s battery could become discharged.
