Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Brightness Control
You can brighten or dim the instrument panel lights and
cluster by turning the exterior lamp knob. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase the brightness of the instrument
panel and cluster, and counterclockwise to decrease the
brightness. Your parking lamps must be on for this
feature to work.
Courtesy Lamps
When a door is opened, several lamps come on. These
lamps are courtesy lamps. They make it easy for you to
enter and leave your vehicle. You can also turn these
lamps on by turning the exterior lamps knob clockwise
all the way.
Some of the lamps have switches so you can turn them
on, even when the doors are closed. These lamps are
reading lamps.
