INTERIOR LIGHTS
The interior light switches are located in the overhead
console. The interior lights can be set to three different
positions (Off/Left Position, Center Position, On/Right
Position).
Using the switch on the left overhead, push the switch to
the right from its center position and the lights are always
on. Push the switch to the left from its center position and
the lights are always off. Leave the switch in the center
position, and the lights are turned on and off when the
doors are opened or closed. The switch on the right side of
the overhead console controls the map or reading function
of the lights. Push the switch to the right to turn on the
right light and push the switch to the left to turn on the left
light.
CAUTION!
Before getting out of the vehicle be sure that the switch
is in the center position or that the lights are off to
avoid draining the battery.
Interior Light Timing (Center Position)
There are four different modes of operation that can be
activated in this position:
•When one door is opened, a three minute timer is
activated.
• When the key is removed from the ignition (within two
minutes of the ignition being turned OFF), a 10 second
timer is activated.
• When the doors are unlocked with the key fob, a 10
second timer is activated.
• When the doors are locked with the key fob, the lights
will turn off.
Interior Light Timing (On/Right Position)
When all doors are closed a 15-minute timer is activated.
NOTE: The timer is deactivated when the key is moved
into the ON/RUN position.

Sun Visors
The driver and passenger sun visors are located on the
headliner, near the front windshield. The sun visors can be
rotated downward or up against the door glass. Both sun
visors are equipped with courtesy mirrors. To view the
courtesy mirror, slide the mirror cover outward.
Electrical Power Outlets
There is a standard 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlet, located
in the floor console, for added convenience. This power
outlet can power mobile phones, electronics and other low
power devices.
Power is available when the ignition switch is in the
ON/RUN or START position. Insert the cigar lighter or
accessory plug into the outlet for use. To preserve the
heating element, do not hold the lighter in the heating
position.

slightly, push the center button, then lower the lever
completely. When the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch
in the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position, the Brake Warning
Light in the instrument cluster will illuminate.
When parking on a hill, it is important to turn the front
wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away
