AUTO light position

When the light switch is in the AUTO position, the parking lights and headlights will turn on or off automatically depending on the amount of light outside the vehicle.

Even with the AUTO light function in operation, it is recommended to turn on the lights manually when driving at night or in fog, or when entering dark areas such as tunnels and parking garages.

NOTICE

  • Do not cover or spill anything on the sensor (1) located on the dashboard.
  • Do not clean the sensor with glass cleaner. The cleaner may leave a light film that can interfere with sensor operation.
  • If your vehicle has tinted glass or other types of metallic coating on the windshield, the Automatic Light Control system may not operate properly.
