HEADLIGHT SWITCH
Automatic Headlights/Parking
Lights/Headlights
• Rotate the headlight switch, locatedon the instrument panel to the left of
the steering wheel, to the first detent
for parking lights and to the
second detent for headlights
.
•
With the parking lights or low beam
headlights on, push the headlight switch
once for fog lights.
•Rotate the headlight switch to “AUTO”
for AUTO headlights.
• When set to AUTO, the system auto- matically turns the headlights on or off
based on ambient light levels.
Automatic High Beams
• The Automatic High Beams system provides increased forward lighting at night by automating high beam control through the use of a digital camera mounted on the
inside rearview mirror. This camera detects vehicle specific light and automati-
cally switches from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out
of view. Refer to Programmable Features in Electronics for further details.
Instrument Panel Dimmer
• Rotate the dimmer control to the extreme left position to fully dim the instrument panel lights and prevent the interior lights from illuminating when a door is
opened.
• Rotate the dimmer control right to increase the brightness of the instrument panel when the parking lights or headlights are on.
• Rotate the dimmer control right to the next detent position to fully brighten the odometer and radio when the parking lights or headlights are on. Refer to your
Media Center/Radio User Manual on the DVD for display dimming.
• Rotate the dimmer control right to the last detent position to turn on the interior lighting.
Cargo Light
• The cargo light is strategically placed lighting that helps illuminate the bed area of the truck. A cargo light symbol will illuminate in the cluster to indicate the light
is on.
• Push the button to turn ON/OFF the cargo lighting.

CAUTION!
•When installing the power distribution center cover, it is important to ensure the
cover is properly positioned and fully latched. Failure to do so may allow water to
get into the power distribution center and possibly result in an electrical system
failure.
•When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use only a fuse having the correct
amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result
in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to
blow, it indicates a problem in the circuit that must be corrected.
