Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Intensity Control
You can brighten or dim the instrument panel lights by
turning the dial up or down.
Turn the dial up all the way to turn on the interior
courtesy lamps.
Illuminated Entry
When you open either front door, or open a rear door,
the lamps inside your vehicle will go on. These lamps
will fade off after about 40 seconds, or when the ignition
is turned on after all the doors have been closed.
If the ignition has been off for less than two minutes, the
lamps inside your vehicle will stay on for about
15 seconds to provide an illuminated exit when you
remove the key from the ignition.
After you exit the vehicle and all of the doors have been
closed, the lamps will stay on for an additional four
seconds before fading off. These lamps will also go on
when you press the LOCK or UNLOCK button on the
keyless entry transmitter (if equipped).
