Lighting Features
Entry Lighting
The headlamps, taillamps, license
plate lamps, backup lamps, dome
lamps, and most of the interior lights
turn on briefly when the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE)
K is pressed,
or when the door handle is pulled
on a keyless access vehicle.
See Ignition Positions (Key Access)
on page 818 or Ignition Positions
(Keyless Access) on page 819.
After about 30 seconds the exterior
lamps turn off, then the dome and
remaining interior lights dim to off.
Entry lighting can be disabled
manually by changing the ignition
out of the OFF position, or by
pressing the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE)
Q button.
This feature can be changed.
See Vehicle Personalization on
page 451.
Exit Lighting
The headlamps, taillamps, parking
lamps, backup lamps, and license
plate lamps come on at night, or
in areas with limited lighting, when
the key is removed from the ignition.
The dome lamps also come on
when the key is removed from
the ignition. The exterior lights and
dome lamps remain on after the
door is closed for a set amount of
time, then automatically turn off.
For vehicles with keyless access,
the exterior lights and dome lamps
automatically turn on when a door
is opened after the ignition is turned
off. See Ignition Positions (Key
Access) on page 818 or Ignition
Positions (Keyless Access) on
page 819.
The exterior lights turn off
immediately by turning the
exterior lamps control off.
This feature can be changed.
See Vehicle Personalization on
page 451.
Parade Dimming
This feature does not let the
instrument panel backlight dim
during daylight hours while the
key is in the ignition and the
headlamps are on. Parade dimming
automatically works with the light
sensor, located on top of the
dashboard. If it is dark enough
outside and the parking lamps are
on, the backlight on the instrument
panel can be adjusted by turning
the instrument panel brightness
knob clockwise or counterclockwise
to brighten or dim the lighting.
See Instrument Panel Illumination
Control on page 56.
