The brightness of the instrument panel lighting
can be regulated by rotating the dimmer con-
trol up (brighter) or down (dimmer). When the
headlights are on you can supplement the
brightness of the odometer, trip odometer, radio
and overhead console by rotating the control to
its farthest position up until you hear a click.
This feature is termed the “Parade” mode and
is useful when headlights are required during
the day.Lights-on ReminderIf the headlights, parking lights, or cargo lights
are left on after the ignition is turned OFF, a
chime will sound when the driver’s door is
opened.
Battery SaverTo protect the life of your vehicle’s battery, load
shedding is provided for both the interior and
exterior lights.
If the ignition is OFF and any door is left ajar for
10 minutes or the dimmer control is rotated all
the way up to the dome ON position for 10 min-
utes, the interior lights will automatically turn off.
If the headlights remain on while the ignition is
cycled OFF, the exterior lights will automatically
turn off after eight minutes. If the headlights are
turned on and left on for eight minutes while the
ignition is OFF, the exterior lights will automati-
cally turn off.
NOTE:
Battery saver mode is cancelled if the igni-
tion is ON.

•
When installing the totally integrated power
module cover, it is important to ensure the
cover is properly positioned and fully
latched. Failure to do so may allow water to
get into the totally integrated power module
and possibly result in a electrical system
failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is important
to use only a fuse having the correct am-
perage rating. The use of a fuse with a
rating other than indicated may result in a
dangerous electrical system overload. If a
properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must
be corrected.
VEHICLE STORAGEIf you are leaving your vehicle dormant for more
than 21 days you may want to take steps to
protect your battery. You may:
• Remove fuse #27 in the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM) labeled Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD#1).
