AUTOMATIC PANEL DIMMING
Use to adjust the brightness of the
instrument panel and all applicable
switches in the vehicle during
headlamp and parklamp operation.
The instrument panel illumination
automatically adjusts to provide the
best visibility as outside light levels
change; this can range from full on
to dim during dark or nearly dark
outside conditions, to completely off
during bright outside conditions.
This will work independently from the headlamp, parklamp and autolamp
systems.
At all illumination levels, the instrument panel lights can still be dimmed
by using the panel dimmer control.
The dimmer switch can be used to control the interior dome lamps.
Move the control to the full upright position, past detent, to turn on the
interior lamps and the outside mirror puddle lamps.
Move the control to the full down position, past detent, to prevent the
interior lights from illuminating when the doors are opened. When the
control is in the full down position, it acts as a dome lamp
defeat/override.
VERTICAL AIM ADJUSTMENT
Your vehicle is fitted with eitherVOR(conventional halogen) orVOL
(High Intensity Discharge - HID) headlamps. The adjustment procedure
depends on the type of headlamps that are equipped on your vehicle.

VOL–Subtract 2 inches (50 mm) from the measurement of the
center height of the lamp to ground
•(3) Twenty-five feet
•(4) Horizontal reference line
2.VOR:Measure the height from
the center of your headlamp to the
ground and mark an 8 foot (2.4

BULBS
Headlamp Condensation
The headlamps are vented to equalize pressure. When moist air enters
the headlamp(s) through the vents, there is a possibility that
condensation can occur. This condensation is normal and will clear
within 45 minutes of headlamp operation.
Replacing exterior bulbs
Check the operation of all the bulbs frequently.
Using the right bulbs
Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below. Headlamp bulbs
must be marked with an authorized“D.O.T.”for North America to assure
lamp performance, light brightness and pattern and safe visibility. The
correct bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly or void the lamp
assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn time.

4. Disconnect the electrical
connector by pulling downward.
5. Rotate the high beam bulb
counterclockwise until the tabs on
the bulb line up with the ring, and
the bulb can be removed by pulling
rearward.
To install the new bulb:
Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully and keep out of
children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base and do
not touch the glass. The oil from your hand could cause the bulb to
break the next time the headlamps are operated.
1. Push the bulb straight in,
carefully aligning the plastic tabs in
the base of the bulb with the
openings in the plastic ring.
2. Rotate the bulb clockwise until it
stops.
3. Reconnect the electrical
connector to the bulb.
4. Install the headlamp on the
vehicle by aligning the four plastic projections into the four holes,
pushing rearward to seat the lamp assembly.
5. Insert the two retainers, making sure that the retainers go over both
plastic projections on each side of the lamp, pushing the retainers down
until they seat.
6. Replace the plastic radiator cover by inserting the edge of the cover
into the tongue and groove of the mating cover, and then rotating the
cover downward. Press firmly on the cover over each headlamp and in
the center of the cover to re-engage the snap in fasteners.
7. Turn the headlamps on and make sure they work properly. If the
headlamp was correctly aligned before you changed the bulb, you should
not need to align it again.
If a low beam headlamp bulb fails, take your vehicle to your
dealer or a qualified service technician to have it replaced.
