Courtesy Lamps; Reading Lamps - Chevrolet 2000 Corvette Owner's Manual

Courtesy Lamps

When any door or the hatch/trunk lid is opened, the
interior lamps will go on (unless it's bright outside).
You can also turn on the courtesy lamps by turning the
interior brightness control knob all the way clockwise.
Be sure not to have this knob turned all the way down
with the lamps on during the day. Your Driver
Information Center (DIC) may not be visible.
Exit and Entry Lighting
With entry lighting, the interior lamps will come on
when entering the vehicle for up to 20 seconds. With
exit lighting, the interior lamps will come on when
the key is turned to OFF or a door is ajar for
about 20 seconds.
You can turn exit and entry lighting off by quickly
turning the headlamps on and off or by quickly turning
the courtesy lamp switch on and off.

Reading Lamps

Your inside rearview mirror includes two reading lamps.
The lamps will go on when a door is opened. When
the doors are closed, each lamp can be turned on
individually by pressing the switch (each lamp has its
own switch).
There is also an interior console flood lamp located
underneath the rearview mirror which comes on with the
headlamps or parking lamps.
