Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Brightness Knob
This feature controls the brightness of the instrument
panel lights.
The knob for this feature is
located on the driver’s side
of the instrument panel.
Turn the knob clockwise to brighten the instrument
panel cluster lights and displays. Turn the knob
counterclockwise to dim the instrument panel cluster
lights and displays.
If it is day and your parking lamps are on, the instrument
panel cluster lights and displays will come on at full
intensity and will not be adjustable. If it is dark enough
outside and your parking lamps are on, the instrument
panel cluster lights and displays and the backlighting for
the door switches will come on, and can also be adjusted.
Courtesy Lamps
If it is dark enough outside and the front reading lamp
slider lever, located on the overhead console, is in the
AUTO position, when any door is opened all of the
vehicles courtesy lamps will come on. See “Reading
Lamps” in the Index. They make it easier for you to
enter and leave the vehicle. The courtesy lamps will
remain on for about 25 seconds after all doors have
been closed. They will then theater dim to off.
Move the front reading lamp slider lever to ON to turn
on the interior courtesy lamps. When the control is
moved back to either OFF or AUTO, the courtesy
lamps will immediately turn off.
If the control is OFF when the doors are opened, only
the lower instrument panel courtesy lamps will come on.
Also, if the control is OFF when illuminated entry or
delayed exit lighting are active, only the lower
instrument panel courtesy lamps will be on.
If a door is left ajar, your interior lamps will turn
off after 10 minutes to save your battery.
