Delayed Illumination
The delayed illumination feature will continue to light
the interior of the vehicle for 25 seconds after all the
doors have been closed so that you can find the ignition
and buckle the seat belt at night. Delayed illumination
will not occur while the ignition is in RUN or
ACCESSORY. After 25 seconds have elapsed, the
interior lamps will slowly fade out. The lamps will
fade out before the 25 seconds have elapsed if you do
the following:
Turn the ignition to RUN or ACCESSORY.
Lock all doors using the remote keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped).
Lock the doors using the power door lock switch.
To turn delayed illumination feature off or on, see
“Locks and Lighting Choices” in the Index.
Delayed Exit Lighting
For exiting the vehicle at night, the vehicle is equipped
with the delayed exit lighting feature. The interior lamps
will illuminate for up to 25 seconds when you remove
the key from the ignition. After 25 seconds have
elapsed, the interior lamps will slowly fade out.
The lamps will fade out before the 25 seconds have
elapsed if you:
Insert the key and turn the ignition to RUN
or ACCESSORY.
Lock all doors using the remote keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped).
Lock the doors using the power door lock switch.
When any door is opened, delayed exit lighting is
canceled. The interior lamps will stay on while any door
is opened and will slowly fade out when all the doors
are closed. The interior lamps may stay on for up to
25 seconds after all the doors have been closed if they
have not been locked. See “Delayed Illumination”
earlier in this section.
To turn the delayed exit lighting feature off or on,
see “Locks and Lighting Choices” in the Index.
