illuminated and dimmed gradually for 15 seconds then go out.
However, the interior lamps go out immediately without being
dimmed in the following cases: ● The ignition switch is turned “ON”.
● All doors and tailgate are lo cked using the key mechanism
of the driver’s door, the lock knob of the driver’s door, or
the remote control switch of the keyless entry system.

● On vehicles with the Dead Lock System, if the ignition
key is removed with the doors closed, the interior lamps
are dimmed gradually for 15 seconds then go out.
● If you leave the lamps on without running the engine, you
will run down the battery. Before you leave the vehicle,
make sure that all the lamps are off.
● When the accessory socket is not in use, be sure to
close the cap, because the socket might become
clogged by foreign material and be short-circuited.
