When any door is opened, several lamps come on. These
lamps
are
courtesy lamps. They make it easy for you to
enter and leave your vehicle. You can also turn these
lamps on by moving the dial near the headlamp knob all
the way up to INT.
Some of the lamps have switches
so
you can turn them
on,
even when the doors are closed. These lamps are
reading lamps. To avoid draining your battery, be sure
to turn
off
all reading lamps when leaving your vehicle.
Your courtesy lamps will come on and stay on for a set
time whenever you:
Pull a front door handle.
Press UNLOCK
on
the Remote Lock Control
transmitter (if equipped).
transmitter (if equipped).
Press DOOR on the Remote Lock Control
If you open a door, the lamps will stay on while it’s open
and then turn
off
automatically about
18
seconds after
you close
it.
If
you
don’t open a door, the lamps will
turn off after about
18
seconds, unless you pressed
UNLOCK on the Remote Lock Control transmitter. If
you pressed UNLOCK and don’t open a door, the lamps
will turn
off
after about
55
seconds.
Illuminated entry includes
a
feature called theater
dimming. With theater dimming, the lamps don’t just
turn off at the end of the delay time. Instead, they slowly
dim during the delay time until they
go
out. The delay
time is canceled if you turn the ignition key to RUN or
START,
so
the lamps will go out right away.
When the ignition is on, illuminated entry is inactive,
which means the courtesy lamps won’t come on.
