Vehicles with the power door lock sys-
temÐ

The light remains on for about 15 sec-
onds after all the side doors and back
door are closed.

When all the doors are locked, or when
the ignition switch is turned to ACCº
or ONº after all the side doors and
back door are closed, the light fades
out.

ther the key or the wireless remote

tion and the door is left opened for 20
minutes or more.

time interval when the wiper lever is in
the intermittent position (position 1). Twist
the band upward to increase the time be-
tween sweeps, and downward to decrease
it.
