Headlight/Parking Light Switch
The headlight/parking light switch is a paddle switch located on the left-hand control panel above the cruise/RPM control switches. See Fig.. When the paddle is lowered, the parking lights illuminate (the front turn signals, the marker and identification lights, and the taillights). When the paddle is raised, the low-beam headlights illuminate, along with all the parking lights. To turn off all lights, return the paddle to the center position.
Raise the paddle to illuminate the low-beam headlights.
Lower the paddle to illuminate the parking lights.

Note: The front turn signal is the amber lens in each headlight unit. The low-beam headlight is the top clear lens in each headlight unit.
When the headlights or parking lights are on, the panel lights also illuminate. An amber light in the switch backlights either the top icon (for headlights and parking lights) or the bottom icon (for parking lights only).
Daytime Running Lights
Switching on the ignition and releasing the parking brakes automatically activates the daytime running lights, if so equipped. The daytime running lights will operate until the parking brakes are applied or the headlights are turned on.
Note: Daytime running lights are standard on all Canadian vehicles.
The daytime running lights illuminate at about two-thirds of normal power.
