Autolight system
The autolight system allows the headlights
to turn on and off automatically. The auto-
light system can:
• Turn on the headlights, front parking, tail,
license plate and instrument panel lights
automatically when it is dark.
• Turn off all the lights (except daylight run-
ning lights) when it is light.
• Keep all the lights on for a period of time
after you place the ignition switch in the
OFF position and all doors are closed.
NOTE:
Autolight activation sensitivity and
the time delay for autolight shutoff
can be adjusted. For additional infor-
mation, see “Vehicle information dis-
play” (P. 2-17).
To turn on the autolight system:
1. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO
position

.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON
position.
3. The autolight system automatically
turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is turned off
and a door is opened and left open, the
headlights remain on for a period of time. If
another door is opened while the head-
lights are on, then the timer is reset.
To turn the autolight system off, turn the
switch to the OFF (if so equipped),
,or
position.
Be sure you do not put anything on top of
the autolight sensor located in the top
side
O

of the instrument panel. The auto-
light sensor controls the autolight; if it is
covered, the autolight sensor reacts as if it
is dark out and the headlights will illumi-
nate. If this occurs while parked with the
engine off and the ignition switch placed
in the ON position, your vehicle's battery
could become discharged.
