Interior Lamps - Oldsmobile 1998 Aurora Owner's Manual

Light Sensor
Your twilight sentinel and daytime running lamps work
with the light sensor on top of the instrument panel.
Don't cover it up. If you do it will read "dark" and the
headlamps will come on.
Interior Lamps
Courtesy Lamps
When any door is opened, several lamps go on. They
make it easy for you to enter and leave the car. To turn
on these lamps, rotate the INTERIOR LIGHTS knob
all the way to HI.
Instrument Panel Brightness
Delayed Illumination
When you open the door to enter your vehicle, the
interior lamps will come on. When you close the door
with the ignition off, the interior lamps will stay on for
25 seconds or until the ignition is turned on. Please note
that locking the doors with the power door lock switch
will override the delayed illumination feature and the
lights will turn off right away.
Theater Dimming
This feature allows for a three to five-second fade out of
the
courtesy lamps instead of immediate turn off. They
will not fade if the interior lights switch is used.
You can brighten or dim your instrument cluster,
radio and climate control displays and control lights
by rotating the INTERIOR LIGHTS control between
LO and HI when your lights are on. Rotate the control
all the way to HI and you will turn on the interior
courtesy lamps.
