Illumination on Door Handle Activation
Illumination on Door Handle Activation is a standard
feature intended to provide enhanced security and
convenience by allowing the driver to activate
the
vehicle interior illumination without unlocking or
opening any vehicle door.
The Illumination on Door Handle Activation feature can
function
in two ways. The ignition must be off and the
doors locked for the Illumination on Door Handle
Activation to work.
If the driver pulls and releases
any front door handle
within one second, the interior lamps will illuminate until:
The ignition is turned to ON,
The power door locks are activated or
An illumination period of 25 seconds has elapsed.
Or, if the driver pulls and holds any
front door handle
for more than one second, the interior lamps will
illuminate until:
The ignition is turned to ON,
0 The door handle is released or
0 An illumination period of 50 seconds has elapsed. If
during the illumination period a door is opened, the
timed illumination period will be canceled, though the
interior lamps will remain on since the vehicle door
is open.
Delayed Illumination
The Delayed Illumination feature will continue to
illuminate the interior for
25 seconds after all doors have
been closed
so that you can find the ignition and buckle
your seat belt at night. Delayed Illumination will
not
occur while the ignition is in ON. After 25 seconds have
elapsed, the interior lamps will slowly fade out. The
lamps will fade out before
25 seconds have elapsed
if you:
Turn the ignition to ON.
Lock all doors using your remote keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped).
0 Lock the doors using the power door lock switch.
If during the Delayed Illumination period a door is
opened, the timed illumination period will be canceled,
though the interior lamps will remain on since the door
is opened.

Exit Illumination Battery Saver
Your vehicle has a feature to help prevent you from
draining the battery in case you accidentally leave an
interior or trunk lamp on. If you leave any of these
lamps on while the ignition is in
ACC or OFF, they will
automatically turn off after
20 minutes. The lamps won’t
come back on until you do one of the following:
To
see better when exiting your vehicle at night, your
vehicle is equipped with an Exit Illumination feature.
The interior lamps will illuminate for up to
25 seconds
when you remove your key from the ignition. After
25 seconds have elapsed, the interior lamps will slowly
fade out. The lamps will fade out before the
25 seconds
have elapsed if you:
Turn the ignition to ON.
0 Lock all doors using your remote keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped).
Lock the doors using the power door lock switch.
When any door is opened, Exit Illumination is canceled.
The interior lamps will stay
on while any door is
opened. The interior lamps may stay on for up to
25 seconds after all the doors have been closed if they
have not been locked. See “Delayed Illumination”
earlier in this section.
Turn the ignition to ON,
Turn the interior lamp dial all the way up or
0 Open (or close and reopen) a door that is closed.
Note that if your vehicle has less than
15 miles (25 km)
on the odometer, the battery saver will turn off the lamps
after only three minutes.

Convenience Net (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You’ll see it
on the back wall
of the trunk.
Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net.
It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns or
quick starts and stops.
The net isn’t for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can.
You can unhook the net so that it will lie flat when
you’re not using it.
You can also push the net down and
hook it under the plastic hooks.
Ashtrays and Lighter
When your vehicle is delivered, the ashtray and lighter
assembly will be in a plastic bag placed in the center
console storage area. If
the ashtray and lighter are
needed, insert the ashtray and holder into the stationary,
open cupholder in front of the shift lever.
The lighter outlet is located just below the heating and
air conditioning controls behind
a flip-out door.
Sun Visors
To block out the glare, you can swing down the visors.
You can also swing them from front to side.
Visor Vanity Mirrors
Open the cover to expose the vanity mirror. If your
vehicle has the optional lighted vanity
mirrors, the
lamps will come on when you open the cover.
Accessory Power Outlets
The power outlets are located on the lower left passenger
side and behind the flip-out door of the lighter.
The power outlets can
be used to plug electrical
equipment such as cellular telephone,
CD radio, etc.
Follow the proper installation instructions that are
included with any electrical equipment you install.

The switch for the fuel
door is on the instrument
panel, to the left of the
steering column.
If your fuel filler door release won’t operate, there is a
manual release tab. The tab
is located against the trim on
the driver’s side of the vehicle,
in the trunk.
I
The cap is behind a hinged door on the left side of your
vehicle. While refueling, hang the cap by the tether from
the pin on the filler door.
To remove the cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise). The cap has a spring in it; if you let
go of the cap too soon, it will spring back to the right.
