To turn the fog lamps on, press the FOG button. A light
will come on in the button to let you know that the
fog lamps are on. Press the FOG button again to turn
the fog lamps off.
The ignition must be ON and the parking lamps must be
on for your fog lamps to work.
The fog lamps will go off while you change to high-beam
headlamps.
Instrument Panel Brightness
The control for the instrument panel lights is located on
the exterior lamps control. Your parking lamps must
be on for this feature to work. Turn the control clockwise
to brighten the lights or counterclockwise to dim them.
Courtesy Lamps
When any door is opened, several lamps come on.
These lamps are courtesy lamps. They make it easy for
you to enter and leave your vehicle. You can also
turn these lamps on by turning the exterior lamps control
all the way clockwise.
Dome Lamp
If your vehicle has this feature, the dome lamp will
come on when you open a door. You can also turn this
lamp on by turning the exterior lamps control clockwise
as far as it will go. Vehicles that have the optional
sunroof do not have a dome lamp.
Entry Lighting
Your vehicle may be equipped with courtesy lamps that
will come on and stay on for a set time whenever
you press UNLOCK on the remote keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped).
If you open a door, the lamps will stay on while it’s open
and then turn off automatically about 25 seconds after
you close it. If you press UNLOCK and don’t open
a door, the lamps will turn off after about 40 seconds.
Entry lighting includes a feature called theater dimming.
With theater dimming, the lamps don’t just turn off at the
end of the delay time. Instead, they slowly dim after the
delay time until they go out. The delay time is canceled if
you turn the ignition key to ON or press the power door
lock switch. The lamps will dim right away.
When the ignition is on, illuminated entry is inactive,
which means the courtesy lamps won’t come on unless
a door is opened.
