Rear cargo lamp
The dome lamp lights when:
•any door is opened, and the
switch is in the middle position.
•the instrument panel dimmer
switch is rotated until the
courtesy lamps come on.
•any of the remote entry controls
are pressed and ignition is OFF
(and switch is in the middle
position).
With the ignition key in the ACC or ON position, the rear dome lamp can
be turned ON or OFF by sliding the control.
Battery saver
The battery saver will shut off the exterior lamps and interior lamps,
except the hazard warning lamps if activated, 10 minutes after the
ignition control has been turned off. The system will not turn off the
parking lamps if the headlamp control is in the PARK position.
BULB REPLACEMENT
Headlamp Condensation
The headlamps are vented to equalize pressure. When moist air enters
the headlamp(s) through the vents, there is a possibility that
condensation can occur. This condensation is normal and will clear
within 45 minutes of headlamp operation.
Using the right bulbs
Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below. Headlamp bulbs
must be marked with an authorized “D.O.T.” for North America to ensure
lamp performance, light brightness and pattern and safe visibility. The
correct bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly or void the lamp
assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn time.

transmitter for the correct orientation of the battery. Press the battery
down to ensure that the battery is fully seated in the battery housing
cavity.

Replacing lost transmitters
If a remote transmitter has been lost and you would like to remove it
from the vehicle’s memory, or you would like to purchase additional
remote transmitters and have them programmed to your vehicle:
•Takeallyour vehicle’s transmitters to your dealer for programming, or
•Perform the programming procedure yourself.
Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to haveall(maximum of six — original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure. If
all remote entry transmitters are not present during the programming
procedure, the transmitters that are not present during programming will
no longer operate the vehicle.Note:Do not press the brake pedal
anytime during this sequencing, as doing so will invalidate the procedure.
To program the transmitters yourself:
•Unlock all doors using the power
door lock/unlock control. Insert a
key in the ignition and turn from
the 1 (OFF/LOCK) to the 3 (ON)
position and cycle between 1
(OFF/LOCK) and 3 (ON) eight
times in rapid succession (within
10 seconds) with the eighth turn
ending in the 3 (ON) position.
The locks will cycle between
unlocked and locked to confirm that the programming mode has been
entered.
•Within 20 seconds, program a remote transmitter by pressing any
button on a transmitter. The locks will cycle once to confirm that the
remote transmitter has been programmed. If more than 20 seconds
pass before pressing a remote transmitter button, the programming
mode will exit and the procedure will have to be repeated.
