Instruments and Controls 4-43

Dome Lamps
The dome lamp buttons are located
in the overhead console.
To change the settings, press the
following:
((Off):Turns the lamp off, even
when a door is open.
1(Door):The lamp comes on
automatically when a door is
opened.
'(On):Turns the dome lamp on.
Lighting Features
Entry Lighting
The lamps inside the vehicle come
on when any door is opened. They
stay on about 20 seconds and when
all of the doors have been closed or
the ignition is turned to ON/RUN they
gradually fade out. They also come
on when the unlock symbol button is
pressed on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system transmitter.
The lamps inside the vehicle stay
on for about 20 seconds after
the key is removed from the ignition
to provide light as you exit.
Theater Dimming
This feature allows for a three to
five second fade out of the courtesy
lamps instead of immediately
turning off.
Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM) that estimates
the battery’s temperature and
state of charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the battery.
When the battery’s state of charge is
low, the voltage is raised slightly to
quickly bring the charge back up.
When the state of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to prevent
overcharging. If the vehicle has a
voltmeter gage or a voltage display
on the Driver Information Center
(DIC), you may see the voltage move
up or down. This is normal. If there is
a problem, an alert will be displayed.
The battery can be discharged at
idle if the electrical loads are
very high. This is true for all
vehicles. This is because the
generator (alternator) may not be
spinning fast enough at idle to
produce all the power that is needed
for very high electrical loads.
5-6 Lighting

A high electrical load occurs when
several of the following are on, such
as: headlamps, high beams, fog
lamps, rear window defogger,
climate control fan at high speed,
heated seats, engine cooling fans,
trailer loads, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent excessive
discharge of the battery. It does
this by balancing the generator’s
output and the vehicle’s electrical
needs. It can increase engine
idle speed to generate more power,
whenever needed. It can temporarily
reduce the power demands of
some accessories.
Normally, these actions occur in
steps or levels, without being
noticeable. In rare cases at thehighest levels of corrective action,
this action may be noticeable to the
driver. If so, a Driver Information
Center (DIC) message might be
displayed, such as BATTERY
SAVER ACTIVE, BATTERY
VOLTAGE LOW, or LOW BATTERY.
If one of these messages display, it
is recommended that the driver
reduce the electrical loads as much
as possible. SeeDriver Information
Center (DIC) on page 4-27.
Battery Power Protection
This feature shuts off the dome
lamps if they are left on for more than
10 minutes when the ignition is in
LOCK/OFF. This helps to prevent the
battery from running down.
