plate lamps come on at night, or in
areas with limited lighting, when the

The dome lamps also come on
when the key is removed from the
ignition. The exterior lights and
dome lamps remain on after the

time, then automatically turn off.
For vehicles with Keyless Access,
the exterior lamps automatically turn
on when a door is opened after the
ignition is turned off. The dome
lamps come on after the ignition is
changed to the OFF position. See
