INTERIOR LAMPS
Second row map lamps
The second row lamps are located
at the rear of the headliner above
each outboard seat.
The second row lamps light when:
•any door is opened,
•the instrument panel dimmer
switch is rotated up until the
courtesy lamps come on, and

BULB REPLACEMENT
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.
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 and an
“E” for Europe to ensure 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.
