UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 101 LIGHTS Overhead Console Map/Reading Lights These lights are mounted between the sun visors on the overhead console. Each light is turned ON by pressing the lens. Press the lens a second time to turn the light OFF. The lights also turn on when a door is opened or the dimmer control is turned fully upward, past the second detent. NOTE: The lights will remain on until the switch is pressed a second time, so be sure they have been turned off before leaving the vehicle. Interior Lights The interior lights come on when a door is opened. The interior lights will automatically turn off 10 minutes after the ignition switch is moved to the LOCK position if they are switched on manually, or if a door is left open to protect the battery. This includes the glove box, but not the trunk. Turn the ignition switch ON, or cycle the switchable lamp that was left on to restore the interior light operation. Dimmer Control The dimmer control is part of the headlamp switch, and is located on the left side of the instrument panel. With the parking lights or headlights on, rotating the dimmer control upward will increase the brightness of the instrument panel lights. 3 Overhead Console
