To activate:

• the ignition must be in the on position,

• the headlamp control is in the off, autolamps or parking lamp position

and

• the transmission must be out of the P (Park) position.

WARNING: Always remember to turn on your headlamps at

dusk or during inclement weather. The Daytime Running Lamp

(DRL) system does not activate the tail lamps and generally may not

provide adequate lighting during these conditions. Failure to activate

your headlamps under these conditions may result in a collision.

PANEL DIMMER CONTROL

Use to adjust the brightness of the

instrument panel and all applicable

switches in the vehicle during

headlamp and parking lamp

operation.

Move the control to the full upright

position, past detent, to turn on the

interior lamps.

Note: If the battery is disconnected,

discharged, or a new battery is

installed, the dimmer switch requires re-calibration. Rotate the dimmer

switch from the full dim position to the full dome/on position to reset.

This will ensure that your displays are visible under all lighting

conditions.

If your vehicle has been in an accident, the alignment of your headlamps

should be checked by your authorized dealer.
