For Canadian vehicles, when it’s dark enough outside,
your front turn signal lamps will go out and your
headlamps will come on. The other lamps that come on
with your headlamps will also come on. When it’s bright
enough outside, the regular lamps will go off, and your
front turn signal lamps will come on.
On a non
-Canadian vehicle, the headlamps have to be
turned on manually when you need them. On Canadian
and non-Canadian vehicles, when the headlamps are
turned on, the front turn signal lamps will go out. When
you use your turn signals, the front turn signal lamp and
the taillamp on the desired side will flash.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when you need it.
Fog Lamps
Use your fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions. Your parking lamps must be on or your fog
lamps won’t work.
Your fog lamp switch is
located on your console.
To turn the fog lamps on, push the right side of the fog
lamp switch and a light on the switch will come on
indicating that the fog lamps are on. Push the left side of
the fog lamp switch to turn the fog lamps off.
The fog lamps will go off whenever your high
-beam
headlamps come on. When the high
-beam headlamps go
off, the fog lamps will come on again.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Content
Theft
-Deterrent System and your fog lamp switch is on,
the fog lamps may flash to indicate operation of the
Content Theft
-Deterrent System. See “Content
Theft
-Deterrent System” in the Index.
