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 “DIC Personalization
Programming” 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.
