Each time you press this button, there is a sound and the bright-
ness of the instruments changes.NOTE
You can adjust to 8 different levels respectively for when
the tail lights are illuminated and when they are not.

If the vehicle is equipped with the automatic light control,

play)

If you press and hold the button for longer than about 1
second when the parking lights are illuminated, the bright-
ness level changes to the maximum level. Pressing and
holding the button for longer than about 1 second again
returns the brightness level to the previous level. (for

play)
