6-6 Lighting Lighting Features Entry Lighting When it is dark enough outside or in areas of limited lighting, the interior lamps, headlamps, parking lamps, and back-up lamps come on when K is pressed on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system transmitter. The lamps inside the vehicle come on when any door is opened. They stay on for about 20 seconds. When all of the doors have been closed or the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, they gradually fade out. This feature can be changed. See "Vehicle Locator Lights" under Vehicle Personalization on page 5-44. Exit Lighting The headlamps, taillamps, parking lamps, back-up lamps, outside mirror 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 lamp comes on after the ignition is changed to the OFF position. The exterior lamps and dome lamp remain on for a set amount of time, then automatically turn off. The exterior lamps turn off immediately by turning the exterior lamp control off. This feature can be changed. See Vehicle Personalization on page 5-44. Battery Load Management The vehicle has Electric Power Management (EPM) that estimates the battery's temperature and state of charge. It then adjusts the voltage for best performance and extended life of the battery. When the battery's state of charge is low, the voltage is raised slightly to quickly bring the charge back up. When the state of charge is high, the voltage is lowered slightly to prevent overcharging. If the vehicle has a voltmeter gauge or a voltage display on the Driver Information Center (DIC), you may see the voltage move up or down. This is normal. If there is a problem, an alert will be displayed. The battery can be discharged at idle if the electrical loads are very high. This is true for all vehicles. This is because the generator (alternator) may not be spinning fast Theater Dimming This feature allows for a three to five second fade out of the courtesy lamps instead of having them turn off immediately.
