Illuminated Entry
If it is dark enough outside and you press the unlock
symbol on the remote keyless entry transmitter while all
doors are closed, the interior courtesy lamps will come
on and stay on for approximately 40 seconds. When the
40 seconds are up, the lights will automatically fade
until they turn off. The lamps will turn off immediately
by pressing the lock symbol on the remote keyless entry
transmitter, by turning the ignition key to ON or by
activating the power door locks.
Delayed Entry Lighting
When you open the door to enter your vehicle, the
interior lamps will come on if it is dark enough outside.
When you close the door with the ignition off, the
interior lamps will stay on for 25 seconds. When the
25 seconds are up the lights will automatically fade
until they turn off. Locking the doors with the power
door lock switch or with the lock symbol on the remote
keyless entry transmitter, will override the delayed entry
lighting and the lamps will turn off immediately.
Theater Dimming
This feature allows for a three to five-second fade out of
the overhead courtesy lamps instead of immediate turn
off after you remove the key from the ignition. They
will not fade if the interior lamps are manually turned
on. The lower instrument panel courtesy lamps will not
fade out.
Delayed Exit Lighting
This feature will turn on the interior lamps for
25 seconds after you remove the key from the ignition
while the doors are closed and it is night. This will give
you time to find the door handle or lock switches as
you exit the vehicle. When the 25 seconds are up, or
if the key is reinserted into the ignition, the lights will
be turned off by the theater dimming system. The
lamps will turn off immediately by pressing the lock
symbol on the remote keyless entry transmitter, by
turning the ignition key to ON or by activating the
power door locks.
