■Daytime running light system
- The daytime running lights illuminate using the same lights as the front turn signal/parking lights, and illuminate brighter than the front turn signal/parking lights.
- To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers during daytime driving, the daytime running lights turn on automatically when all of the following conditions are met. (The daytime running lights are not designed for use at night.)
• The engine is running
• The parking brake is released
• The headlights switch is in “AUTO”* (type A and C) or the “DRL” (type B) position
*: When the surroundings are bright
The daytime running lights remain on after they illuminate, even if the parking brake is set again. - Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve fuel economy.
