PANEL DIMMER CONTROL
Use to adjust the brightness of the
instrument panel and all applicable
switches in the vehicle during
headlamp and parking lamp
operation.
Move the control to the full upright
position, past detent, to turn on the
interior 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.
Note:If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is
installed, the dimmer switch requires re-calibration. Rotate the dimmer
switch from the full dim position to the full Dome/ON position to reset.
This will ensure that your displays are visible under all lighting
conditions.
AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
The headlamps on your vehicle are properly aimed at the assembly plant.
If your vehicle has been in an accident, the alignment of your headlamps
should be checked by your authorized dealer.
Vertical aim adjustment
1. Park the vehicle directly in front of a wall or screen on a level surface,
approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters) away.
•(1) 8 feet (2.4 meters)
•(2) Center height of lamp to
ground
•(3) 25 feet (7.6 meters)
•(4) Horizontal reference line
2. Measure the height from the
center of your headlamp (indicated
by a 3.0 mm circle on the lens) to
the ground and mark an 8 foot (2.4
meter) horizontal reference line on
the vertical wall or screen at this height (a piece of masking tape works
well).

INTERIOR LAMPS
Map lamps
To turn on the map lamps, press the
control next to each lamp.
Rear map lamp (if equipped)
The rear map lamp lights are

rail system. The map lamp lights
when any door is not completely
closed, the instrument panel switch
is pushed past the detent and when
any of the remote entry controls are
pressed while the ignition is off.
Courtesy/reading/cargo lamps (if equipped)
The dome portion of the lamp, the
center light, can be turned on when
the panel dimmer control is rotated
fully up or when any door is
opened.

control is moved to the passenger
side position. When the control is in
the middle position, the lamp will
only come on when a door is
opened. If the control is moved to the driver’s side position, the lamp will
not come on at all.

INTERIOR MIRROR
The interior rear view mirror has two pivot points on the support arm
which lets you adjust the mirror UP or DOWN and from SIDE to SIDE.
Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is in motion.
Automatic dimming interior rear view mirror
Your vehicle is equipped with an
interior rear view mirror and a
driver’s side exterior mirror that has
an auto-dimming function. The
electronic day/night mirror will
change from the normal (high
reflective) state to the non-glare
(darkened) state when bright lights
(glare) reach the interior mirror. When the interior mirror detects bright
light from behind the vehicle, the interior rear view mirror and the
driver’s side exterior mirror will automatically adjust (darken) to
minimize glare.
The mirrors will automatically return to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R (Reverse) to ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.
Do not block the sensors on the front and back of the interior
rear view mirror since this may impair proper mirror
performance.
Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Note:If equipped with a Reverse Camera System, a video image will
display in the mirror when the vehicle is put in (R) reverse. As you shift
into any other gear from (R) Reverse, the image will remain for a few
seconds and then turn off. Refer toReverse Camera Systemin the
Drivingchapter.

and enters the vehicle.
The perimeter lighting feature activates when:
•the ignition is in the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position,
•the autolamp sensor determines that it is dark, and
•the user activates an unlock feature, using either the remote keyless
transmitter or the keypad.
The perimeter lighting feature will illuminate the headlamps and parking
lamps for 25 seconds, or until:

position, or
•the user activates a lock feature, using either the remote keyless
transmitter or the keypad.
Enabling/disabling the perimeter lighting feature
Your vehicle comes with the perimeter lighting feature enabled. All
vehicle doors must be closed before beginning the procedure. You must
complete Steps 1–5 within 30 seconds, or the procedure will have to be
repeated. If the procedure needs to be repeated, you must wait a
