Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Brightness
The thumbwheel for this feature is located below the
exterior lamps control. Turn the thumbwheel to the right
to brighten the lights, or to the left to dim them.
Interior Lamps Control
Turn the thumbwheel all the way to the right to turn on
the interior lamps, if the interior lamps override
switch is off. Turn the thumbwheel to the left to turn the
lamps off.
Interior Lamps Override
This switch is located in
the overhead console
switchbank. Press
the bottom of the switch to
keep the interior lamps
off while any door is open,
or the top of the switch
to allow the interior lamps
to come on while any
door is open.
Dome Lamp
The dome lamp is located in the headliner and has two
buttons to manually turn it on or off. The dome lamp
will come on each time you open a door, unless you turn
on the interior lamps override feature. See “Interior
Lamps Override” earlier in this section.
Entry Lighting
With entry lighting, the interior of your vehicle is
illuminated so that you can see inside before you enter
your vehicle. The lamps will come on for 40 seconds
if you unlock your door using your key or the remote
keyless entry transmitter and the ignition is in LOCK or
OFF. After 40 seconds have passed, the interior
lamps will slowly fade out. The lamps will turn off before
the 40 seconds if you do one of the following:
Lock all the doors using the key.
Press LOCK on the power door lock switch.
Press LOCK on the remote keyless entry
transmitter.
When any door is opened, entry lighting is cancelled.
The interior lamps will stay on while any door or
the liftgate is open, and slowly fade out when all doors
and the liftgate are closed.

Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist
(URPA)
The Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA) system is
designed to help you park, while the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). It operates only at very low speeds, less
than 3 mph (5 km/h). URPA can help make parking
easier and to help you avoid colliding with objects such as
parked vehicles. The URPA system can detect objects up
to 5 feet (1.5 m) behind the vehicle, and tell you how
close these objects are from your rear bumper.
Your vehicle’s URPA operates when the shift lever is
moved into REVERSE (R) and the vehicle speed is less
than 3 mph (5 km/h). Four ultrasonic sensors located at
the rear bumper are used to detect the distance to the
object. The URPA display is located inside the vehicle,
near the rear window. It has three color-coded lights used
to provide distance and system information to the driver.
