feature must be turned on.

will appear on the Driver Information Center (DIC).

When the ignition is turned to OFF, the wiper-activated
headlamps will immediately turn off. The wiper-activated

Lamps on Reminder

A warning chime will sound if the exterior lamp control
is left on in either the headlamp or parking lamp position
and the driver’s door is opened with the ignition off.

Daytime Running Lamps

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the
day. DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the short
periods after dawn and before sunset. Fully functional
daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles
first sold in Canada.

The DRL system will make the low-beam headlamps
come on at reduced intensity when the following
conditions are met:

It is still daylight and the ignition is on,

the exterior lamp control is in the off position and

the transaxle is not in PARK (P).
