ALC Light Sensor

The ALC system’s light sensor is located

on top of the instrument panel. To

ensure proper system operation, it is

important to avoid placing any objects

on or near the sensor or covering up the

sensor, such as with an instrument

panel cover.

Exterior Lamp Control Switch

The exterior lamp control switch is

located on the lever to the left of the

steering column. The switch can be

rotated to each of the following four

positions:

(Headlamps):

Turns on the head-

lamps, parking lamps and taillamps. 

(Parking Lamps):

Turns on parking

lamps and taillamps only. 

AUTO: 

Automatic Lamp Control

(ALC):

Automatically turns on Daytime

Running Lamps (DRLs) in the daytime,

and headlamps, parking lamps and tail-

lamps at dusk or when necessary. 

(Off):

When operating in the 

AUTO

position, a momentary turn of the lamp

control switch to the Off position will

turn off the ALC and all of the exterior

lights. The DIC will display an Automatic

Lights Off message. To activate ALC,

turn the switch again. ALC is always

turned on when the vehicle is started.
