NOTE:

Vehicles sold in Canada are equipped with a headlight switch without the OFF position. In order to turn the exterior lights off, the headlight switch must be rotated to AUTO position.

To turn on the headlights, rotate the headlight switch clockwise. When the headlight switch is on, the parking lights, taillights, license plate light and instrument panel lights are also turned on. To turn off the headlights, rotate the headlight switch back to the O (off) position.

For vehicles sold in Canada, rotate the headlight switch clockwise from the parking light and instrument panel light position to the AUTO position for automatic headlights. Rotate to the second detent to turn on headlight, parking light, and instrument panel light operation.

NOTE:

  • Your vehicle is equipped with plastic head- light and fog light (if equipped) lenses that are lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage than glass lights. Plastic is not as scratch resistant as glass and therefore different lens cleaning procedures must be followed.
  • To minimize the possibility of scratching the lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with a mild soap solution followed by rinsing.

CAUTION!

Do not use abrasive cleaning components, solvents, steel wool or other abrasive materials to clean the lenses.
