Exit Lighting
The headlamps, taillamps, parking

areas with limited lighting, when a
door is opened after the ignition is
turned off. The dome lamps also
come on when a door is opened
after the ignition is changed to the
off position.
The exterior lights and dome lamp
remain on after the door is closed
for a set amount of time, then
automatically turn off.
The exterior lights turn off
immediately by turning the exterior
lamps control to off.
This feature can be changed.
See Vehicle Personalization on
page 5‑40.
Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM) that estimates
the battery's temperature and state
of charge. It then adjusts the voltage
for best performance and extended
life of the battery.
When the battery's state of charge
is low, the voltage is raised slightly
to quickly bring the charge back up.
When the state of charge is high,
the voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent overcharging. If the vehicle
has a voltmeter gauge or a voltage
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC), you may see the
voltage move up or down. This is
normal. If there is a problem, an
alert will be displayed.
