Overhead Light Switches
To protect the battery, the interior lights will turn off
automatically 15 minutes after the ignition is
placed in the OFF position. This will occur if the
interior lights were turned on manually or are on
because a door is open. This includes the glove
compartment light and the cargo area light. To
restore interior light operation, either place the
ignition in the ON/RUN position, or push the light
switch on and then back off.
Instrument Panel Dimmer Control
The instrument panel dimmer control is part of the
headlight switch and is located on the driver’s side
of the instrument panel.
Rotating the instrument panel dimmer up or down
will adjust the brightness of the instrument panel
lights ONLY when the parking lights or headlights
are turned on, AND ONLY if the built in light sensor
determines that the ambient light levels are low
enough that the backlighting should be enabled.

of the ambient light located in the overhead
