144 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE Automatic Headlights - If Equipped Automatic headlights can be activated by rotating the rotary headlight switch to the symbol "A." The headlights will turn on when the engine is running and the ambient light sensor indicates that the headlights should be activated. The headlights will turn off if the headlight switch is rotated to the OFF position or 90 seconds after the ignition is turned to OFF. Headlight Delay To aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with a headlight delay that will leave the headlights on for 90 seconds. This delay is initiated when the ignition is cycled off while the headlight switch is on, and then the headlight switch is cycled off. The headlights will remain on for 90 seconds. Headlight delay can be canceled by either turning the headlight switch ON then OFF or by turning the ignition ON. The headlight delay time is programmable on vehicles equipped with the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). For details, refer to "Personal Settings (Customer Programmable Features)" under "Overhead Console with Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) - If Equipped" in Section 3. Interior Lights The brightness of the instrument panel lighting can be regulated by rotating the dimmer control up (brighter) or down (dimmer). When the headlights are ON you can supplement the brightness of the odometer, trip odometer, radio and overhead console by rotating the control up until you hear a click. This feature is termed the ЉParadeЉ mode and is useful when headlights are required during the day.
