DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP (CANADA ONLY)
JR vehicles built for use in Canada are equipped with a Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) system. The DRL system operates the high beam filaments at a lower intensity when the engine is operating and the exterior lamp switch is in either the OFF or parking lamp ON position and the parking brake is not applied. The DRL system is controlled by the Daytime Running Lamp Module located on the back of the multi-function module behind the instrument panel . The DRL module overrides the headlamp switch when the headlamps are turned OFF. The headlamps operate normally when the headlamps are turned ON.
