Map lamp (if equipped)
Push in the map lamp lens (1) to turn the
light on or off. This light produces a spot
beam for convenient use as a map lamp
at night or as a personal lamp for the
driver and the passenger.

In the DOOR position, the light comes on
when any door is opened regardless of
the ignition switch position.
When doors are unlocked by the trans-
mitter, the light comes on for approxi-
mately 30 seconds as long as any door is
not open. The light goes out gradually
after approximately 30 seconds if the
door is closed. However, if the ignition
switch is ON or all doors are locked, the
light will turn off immediately.
If a door is opened with the ignition
switch in the ACC or LOCK position, the
light stays on for about 20 minutes.
However, if a door is opened with the
ignition switch in the ON position, the
light stays on continuously.
