2016 Ram 3500 odometer

The brightness of the instrument panel as well as the
ambient lighting can be regulated by rotating the dimmer
control right (brighter) or left (dimmer). When the head-
lights are on you can supplement the brightness of the
odometer, trip odometer, radio and overhead console by
rotating the control to the right until you hear a click. This
feature is termed the “Parade” mode and is useful when
headlights are required during the day.
NOTE:If your vehicle is equipped with a touchscreen,
the dimming of the touchscreen is programmable
through the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings ” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for
further details.

Both lights in the overhead console and rear passenger
compartment will illuminate as courtesy lights when a
door is opened, when the dimmer control is rotated to the
courtesy light position (full right position), or when the
UNLOCK button is pushed on the Remote Keyless Entry

adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire
failure and loss of vehicle control.

Replacing original tires with tires of a different size
may result in false speedometer and odometer read-
ings.
