Courtesy Lamps
The courtesy lamps are located on the headliner above
the rear seat. These lamps come on by turning the
instrument panel brightness knob fully clockwise or
when any door is opened and it is dark outside. Puddle
lamps are located on the bottom of the front and rear
door trim.
Professional vehicles have an additional dome lamp
and also opera lamps.
Entry Lighting
This feature turns on the courtesy lamps and the
backlighting for the door switches and the exterior lamp
control when a door is opened or if the remote keyless
entry transmitter unlock button is pressed. If activated
due to the transmitter, the lighting remains active for
about 40 seconds. Since the entry lighting system uses
the light sensor, it must be dark outside in order for the
courtesy lamps to turn on. The courtesy lamps turn off
approximately 25 seconds after the last door is closed.
They will dim to off if the ignition key is turned to ON/
RUN, or immediately deactivate if the power locks are
activated.
Parade Dimming
This feature prohibits dimming of the digital displays
and backlighting during daylight hours when the key is
in the ignition and the headlamps are on. This feature is
fully automatic. When the light sensor reads darkness
outside and the parking lamps are active, the digital
displays can be adjusted by turning the instrument
panel brightness knob counterclockwise to dim and
clockwise to brighten lighting.
Reading Lamps
The reading lamps are located on the overhead console
on the headliner and in the rear door opening. These
lamps come on automatically when any door is opened
and it is dark outside.
For manual operation, press the button to turn them on.
Press it again to turn them off.
If the reading lamps are left on, they automatically shut
off 10 minutes after the ignition has been turned off.
