How It Works
- Auto ON at Start: When your vehicle starts and voltage rises above 13V, the daytime running lights activate automatically — no manual input needed.
- Smart Dimming: When you switch on your headlights or reading lights, the DRL automatically dims, keeping your lighting balanced and road-safe.
- Delayed Auto OFF: When the car is turned off and voltage drops below 12.5V, the DRL stays on for an additional 15 seconds before shutting off automatically — illuminating your path as you exit the vehicle.
