 The interior room lamp OFF conditions.
 The interior room lamp timer operating time is expired.
PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH ILLUMINATION CONTROL
Push-button Ignition Switch Illumination Basic Operation
 BCM controls the ON/OFF status of push-button igni tion switch illumination according to vehicle status.
 BCM provides the push-button ignition switch illumi nation control signal and the ground to turn the push-but-
ton ignition switch illumination ON.
 BCM cuts the ground supply while each illumination (tai l lamp) is ON. BCM switches to the ground control
according to the meter illumination control function. Refer to MWI-16, "
METER ILLUMINATION CONTROL :
System Description".
Heart Beat Operation
BCM repeats brightening and dimming operation of push-button ignition switch illumination when any of the
following conditions are satisfied.
 Welcome light function operates.
 When ignition switch is OFF and any of the following conditions are satisfied.
- Driver side door changes from closed to open
- Driver side door changes from locked to unlocked
- Intelligent Key ID comparison is OK and driver side door changes from open to closed
- ID comparison by Intelligent Key transponder is OK
Illumination ON Operation
When ignition switch is not OFF or tail lamp turns ON, push-button ignition switch illumination turns ON.
Dimming Operation
When tail lamp turns OFF and ignition switch is turned OFF, push-button ignition switch illumination dims to
50% brightness.
Illumination OFF Operation
Push-button ignition switch illumination turns OFF when ignition switch turns OFF and tail lamp turns from ON
to OFF, while push-button ignition switch illumination is in ON status.
When push-button ignition switch illumination is at 50% brightness or in heartbeat status, and any of the fol-
lowing conditions are satisfied, push-butt on ignition switch illumination turns OFF.
 15 seconds after start of heartbeat operation.
 When welcome light function is not operating and any on the following conditions is satisfied.
- Driver side door is closed
- Driver side door is locked
- Intelligent Key ID comparison is NG
- Comparison of Intelligent Key ID by transponder is NG

INTERIOR ROOM LAMP BATTERY SAVER FUNCTION
 When the ignition switch is turned to a position other than ON, BCM operates the timer for a period of time to
cut the interior room lamp power supply.
 BCM restart the timer when any of the following signals changes while operating the timer.
- Push-button ignition switch status
- Door switch signal (ALL)
- Door lock/unlock signal (remote keyless entry re ceiver, each door request switch, door lock and unlock
switch, door key cylinder switch)
 BCM provides the interior room lamp power supply continuously when the ignition switch position is ON.
 When welcome light function operates.

ILLUMINATION CONTROL
 BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
 BCM transmits position light request signal to IPDM E/R and combination meter according to tail lamp ON
condition.
Tail lamp ON condition- Lighting switch 1ST
- Lighting switch 2ND
- Lighting switch AUTO, and the auto light function ON judgment
- Lighting switch AUTO, with the front fog lamp switch ON and the ignition switch ON
 IPDM E/R turns the integrated tail lamp relay ON acco rding to position light request signal. It provides the
power supply to each illumination lamp.
 Combination meter enters in the nighttime mode accord ing to position light request signal. Under the night-
time mode the combination meter controls the illu minance by controlling each illumination lamp (ground
side).

AUTO LIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
Description
 BCM supplies voltage to the optical sensor when the ignition switch is turned ON or ACC.
 Optical sensor converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage and transmits the optical sensor signal to BCM.
 BCM judges dimming/brightening of combination meter and display according to brightness outside the vehi- cle, when ignition switch is ON.
 BCM transmits dimmer signal to combination meter via CAN communication, according to auto light adjust- ment conditions. Dimmer signal is also transmitted to AV control unit.
NOTE:
As to dimming/brightening timing, the sensitivity depends on settings. The settings can be changed with CON-
SULT-III. Refer to EXL-23, "
HEADLAMP : CONSULT-III F unction (BCM - HEAD LAMP)".
Auto Light Adjustment Timing Table
When the ignition switch is ON, the illumination of co mbination meter and display switches dimming/brighten-
ing in the following condition.
BCM switches the illumination of combination me ter and display to dimming when outside brightening
obtained from the optical sensor signal is 1250 lx or le ss for 3 seconds or more. And BCM switches the illumi-
nation of combination meter and display to brightening when outside brightening from the optical sensor signal
is 2500 lx or more for 5 seconds or more.
