2-47 Illuminated Entry
If it is dark enough outside and you press the unlock
symbol on the remote lock control transmitter while all
doors are closed, the interior courtesy lamps will come
on and stay on for approximately 40 seconds. When
the 40 seconds is up, the lights will be turned off by
the theater dimming effect. The lamps will turn off
immediately by pressing the lock symbol on the remote
lock control transmitter, by turning the ignition key to
RUN or by activating the power door locks.
Delayed Entry Lighting
When you open the door to enter your vehicle, the
interior lamps will come on if it is dark enough outside.
When you close the door with the ignition off, the
interior lamps will stay on for 25 seconds. When the
25 seconds is up the lights will be turned off by the
theater dimming effect. Please note that locking the
doors with the power door lock switch or with the lock
symbol on the remote lock control transmitter, will
override the delayed entry lighting and the lamps will
turn off immediately.
Theater Dimming
This feature allows for a three to five-second fade out
of the overhead courtesy lamps instead of immediate
turn off after you remove the key from the ignition.
They will not fade if the interior lamps are manually
turned on. The lower instrument panel courtesy lamps
will not theater dim.
Delayed Exit Lighting
This feature will turn on the interior lamps for 25
seconds after you remove the key from the ignition
while the doors are closed and it is night. This will give
you time to find the door handle or lock switches as you
exit the vehicle. When the 25 seconds is up, or if the key
is reinserted into the ignition, the lights will be turned
off by the theater dimming effect. The lamps will turn
off immediately by pressing the lock symbol on the
remote lock control transmitter, by turning the ignition
key to RUN or by activating the power door locks.

2-48 Parade Dimming
To activate the instrument panel backlighting during
the day, turn the headlamp switch to the parking lamp
position. Dimming of the instrument panel display is
not possible during daylight hours. The instrument panel
display can only be adjusted when the parking lamps
are on and it is dark outside.
Perimeter Lighting
When the unlock symbol on the remote lock control
transmitter is pressed, the DRL headlamps, parking
lamps and back
-up lamps will turn on for approximately
25 seconds if it is dark enough outside.
This feature can be programmed on or off for each
transmitter. You can also program how long the
exterior lamps will stay on after unlocking the vehicle.
You must program this feature through the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See ªDIC Personalization
Programmingº in the Index.
Front Reading Lamps
These lamps and the interior courtesy lamps will come
on when you open a door. They will turn off when you
turn on the ignition. If a door is left open, they will turn
off after about 10 minutes.
To turn on the reading lamps when the doors are closed,
press the button under the lamp you want on. Press it
again to turn the lamp off.
These lamps work even when the ignition is off. To avoid
draining your vehicle's battery, be sure to turn off all
front and rear reading lamps when leaving your vehicle.

2-52 Power Remote Control Mirror
The controls on the driver's door operate both outside
rearview mirrors. Move the L/R switch to the left (L)
to select the driver's side rearview mirror, or to the
right (R) to select the passenger's side rearview mirror.
Then press the arrows on the four
-way pad to adjust
each mirror so that you can see a little of the side of
your vehicle when you are sitting in a comfortable
driving position.Leave the L/R switch in the center position to disable
mirror movement by the four
-way control pad.
If your vehicle is equipped with the memory function,
the mirrors and driver's seat position, can be stored into
memory. See ªMemory Seat and Mirrorsº in the Index.
Parallel Park Assist Mirror (If Equipped)
If you have the memory seat and mirrors feature,
the passenger's outside rearview mirror also includes a
tilt
-down feature that operates when the shift lever is
in REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R), the passenger mirror will return to its
original position after a five
-second delay. This delay
prevents movement of the mirror if multiple gear
transitions (REVERSE (R) to DRIVE (D) to
REVERSE (R)) occur during a parallel parking
maneuver. This feature can be programmed on or off
through the DIC. See ªDriver Information Centerº
or ªPersonalization Featuresº in the Index for
