To turn on the lights
When the lever is pulled with the ignition switched to ACC or OFF, the low beam headlights turn on.
The headlights turn off after a certain period of time has elapsed after all of the doors are closed.

The time until the headlights turn off after all of the doors are closed can be changed.
Refer to Personalisation Features (Search).

If no operations are done for 3 minutes after the lever is pulled, the headlights turn off.

The headlights turn off if the lever is pulled again while the headlights are illuminated.
Running Lights (Some Models)
The running lights, which turn on while the vehicle is being driven during the daytime, are designed to notify on-coming vehicles or pedestrians of the presence of the vehicle.
The running lights turn on when the vehicle is driven and turn off when the parking brake is operated or the selector lever is shifted to the P position (automatic vehicle).
Fog Lights (Some Models)
The fog lights can be used when the ignition is switched ON.
Use this switch to turn on the fog lights. The fog lights will improve visibility at night and during foggy conditions.
To turn the fog lights on, rotate the fog light switch to the 
position.
The headlight switch must be in the 
or 
position when turning on the fog lights.
The fog light indicator light in the instrument cluster illuminates while the fog light are on.
To turn the fog lights off, do any of the following:
-
Rotate the fog light switch to the OFF position.
-
Turn the headlight switch to the OFF position.

If the fog light switch is in the
position or the headlight switch is in the AUTO position, the fog lights will turn on when the headlights, the exterior lights turn on.
Direction Indicators
Move the signal lever down (for a right turn) or up (for a left turn) to the stop position. The signal will self-cancel after the turn is completed.
If the indicator light continues to flash after a turn, manually return the lever to its original position.
The direction indicators in the instrument cluster flash according to the operation of the direction indicator lever to show which signal is working.
-
If an indicator light stays on without flashing or if it flashes abnormally, one of the direction indicator bulbs may be burned out.
-
A personalised function is available to change the turn indicator sound volume. (Search)
