Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Illuminated Entry
The illuminated entry system turns on the courtesy
lamps and the backlighting to the driver's door switches
and to the ignition key when a door is opened or if you
press the
RKE transmitter unlock button. The
illuminated entry system works with the light sensor and
it must be dark outside in order for the courtesy lamps or
backlighting to turn on. The courtesy lamps turn off
approximately
25 seconds after the last door is closed or
after the ignition key is placed in the
RUN position or if
the
RKE transmitter lock button is pressed.
Reading Lamps
The reading lamps are located in the roof. These lamps
and the interior courtesy lamps come on when any door
is opened and it is dark outside. The rear lamps come
on when a rear door
is opened. Press the button to turn
them on. Press it again to turn them off.
Parade Dimming
This feature prohibits the dimming of the instrument
panel lights during daylight while the parking lamps are
on. This feature works with the light sensor and is fully
automatic. When the light sensor reads darkness outside,
the instrument panel lights can be adjusted. Backlighting
to the instrument panel will also turn on. If
the reading lamps are left on, they automatically shut
off
10 minutes after the ignition has been turned off.
Battery Load Management
The battery load management feature is designed to
monitor the vehicle electrical load and determine when
the battery
is in a heavy discharge condition. During
times of high electrical loading, the engine may idle at a
higher
R€" setting than normal to make sure the battery
charges. High electrical loads may occur when several
of the following are on: headlamps, high beams, fog
lamps, rear window defogger, high blower fan, heated seats and engine cooling fans.
