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

Even when the automatic headlight function is activated, it is recommended to turn on the headlights manually at night, in fog, or when you enter poorly lit places such as tunnels and parking garages.

NOTICE

  • Do not cover the sensor (1) located on the instrument panel and do not pour liquid on it.
  • Do not clean the sensor with glass cleaner, as a film may form and prevent it from functioning properly.
  • If your vehicle has tinted glass or any metallic coating on the windshield, the automatic headlight system may not operate correctly.
