54 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
To protect the battery, the interior lights will turn
off automatically 15 minutes after the ignition is
placed in the OFF position. This will occur if the
interior lights were turned on manually or are on
because a door is open. This includes the glove
compartment light and the cargo area light. To
restore interior light operation, either place the
ignition in the ON/RUN position, or push the
light switch on and then back off.
Instrument Panel Dimmer Control
The instrument panel dimmer control is part of
the headlight switch and is located on the
driver's side of the instrument panel.
Rotating the instrument panel dimmer up or
down will adjust the brightness of the
instrument panel lights ONLY when the parking
lights or headlights are turned on, AND ONLY if
the built in cluster light sensor determines that
the ambient light levels are low enough that the
backlighting should be enabled.
