approximately
20 seconds.
In order to operate the wiper activated headlamps, the
twilight sentinel must be turned on. This feature lights
the way in poor weather and it also makes your vehicle
more visible to other drivers. If the wiper activated
headlamps are on, and the ignition switch is turned off,
the wiper activated headlamps will immediately turn
off.
The wiper activated headlamps will deactivate if you
turn
off the twilight sentinel or if the windshield wipers
have been turned
off for a period of one or two seconds.

Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the manual parking lamp control has been left on, the
exterior lamps will
turn off approximately 10 minutes
after the ignition is turned to
LOCK or ACCESSORY.
This protects draining the battery in case yoihave
accidently left the headlamps or parking lamps on. If
you need to purposely leave the lamps on for more than
10 minutes with the ignition in LOCK or ACCESSORY,
turn the manual control knob off and then back on. To
delay the lahps from turning off, see "Twilight
Sentinel" earlier in this section.

lamps and the backlighting to, the 'door switches
