Illuminated Entry
With illuminated entry, the interior of your vehicle is

vehicle. The lamps will come on for 40 seconds if you
unlock your door using your key or the optional remote
keyless entry transmitter and the ignition is in LOCK or
OFF. After 40 seconds have passed, the interior lamps
will slowly fade out. The lamps will turn off before the
40 seconds if you do one of the following:
D
Lock all the doors using the key,
D
press LOCK on the power door lock switch, or
D
press LOCK on the optional remote keyless
entry transmitter.
When any door is opened, illuminated entry is cancelled.
The interior lamps will stay on while any door or the
liftgate is open, and slowly fade out when all doors and
the liftgate are closed.
The interior lamps may stay on for up to 25 seconds
after all doors have been closed if they have not been
locked. See "Delayed Illumination" later in this section.
To turn the exit lighting feature off or on, see
"Multifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choices"
