Only for Canada:

The daytime running lamps improve the

visibility of your vehicle during the day. The

daytime running lamps function is required by

law in Canada. It cannot therefore be

deactivated.

When the engine is running and the vehicle is

stationary: if you move the selector lever from

a drive position to P, the daytime running

lamps/low-beam headlamps go out after

three minutes.

When the engine is running, the vehicle is

stationary and in bright ambient light: if you

turn the light switch to T, the daytime

running lamps and parking lamps switch on.

If the engine is running and you turn the light

switch to L, the manual settings take

precedence over the daytime running lamps.

USA only:

The daytime running lamps improve the

visibility of your vehicle during the day. To do

this, the daytime running lamps function must

be switched on using the on-board computer
