Instrument Panel Brightness

Turn the knob clockwise to brighten the lights or
counterclockwise to dim them.

Dome Lamp

The switch on this lamp has three positions. The on
position will turn on the lamp anytime. The door position
will turn on the lamp whenever a door is opened. The
off position will shut off the lamp completely, even while
a door is opened. Your dome lamp may be equipped
with two rear reading lamps. See Rear Reading Lamps
on page 3-20.
The control for this
feature is located on the
instrument panel to the
left of the steering wheel.

Entry/Exit Lighting

When you open any door, the lamps inside of your
vehicle will go on. These lamps will fade out 20 seconds
after the last door is closed, or when the ignition is
turned on after all doors have been closed. These lamps
will also go on when you press the trunk release
button, the unlock button or the panic button on the
remote keyless entry transmitter.
The lamps inside of your vehicle will turn on for about
10 seconds after your key is removed from the ignition
to provide an illuminated exit.

Parade Dimming

Parade dimming is a separate lighting mode of operation
that is activated if 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.
