Entry/Exit Lighting
The lamps inside the vehicle come on when any door
is opened. These lamps fade out about 20 seconds after
all of the doors have been closed or when the ignition
is turned to ON/RUN. They also come on when the
unlock symbol button or the horn symbol is pressed on
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system transmitter.
The lamps inside the vehicle stay on for about
20 seconds after the key is removed from the
ignition to provide light as you exit.

Parade Dimming

Parade dimming is a separate lighting mode that is
activated when the park lamps are turned on during
the day. Usually when the park lamps are turned
on during the day, the display's illumination and
LEDs become lower and the backlighting is activated.
To avoid this condition, backlighting is turned off,
and the displays and LEDs are set to a high
predetermined intensity when daylight conditions are
detected to enhance the display's visibility during
daytime.
