GENERAL INFORMATION

LIGHTING CONTROL

Condensation in the Exterior Front

Lighting Control Positions

Lamps and Rear Lamps

Exterior front lamps and rear lamps have

vents to accommodate normal changes

in air pressure.

Condensation can be a natural by-product

of this design. When moist air enters the

lamp assembly through the vents, there is

a possibility that condensation can occur

when the temperature is cold. When

normal condensation occurs, a fine mist

can form on the interior of the lens. The

fine mist eventually clears and exits

through the vents during normal operation.

Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours

under dry weather conditions.

Examples of acceptable condensation are:

•

The presence of a fine mist (no streaks,

drip marks or large droplets).

•

A fine mist covers less than 50% of the

lens.

Lamps off.

If you see any unacceptable condensation,

have your vehicle checked by an authorized

dealer.
