Off-Road Lamps

Notice:

If you drive your vehicle through an

automatic car wash that does not have enough

clearance for any roof-mounted accessories (such

as off-road lamps or a roof basket) on your vehicle,

you can damage your vehicle. To avoid damaging

your vehicle in a car wash, remove any

roof-mounted accessories if you can, and do not

use an automatic car wash while roof-mounted

accessories are on your vehicle. See

Cleaning the

Outside of Your Vehicle on page 5-95

for more

information.

The off-road lamps, if equipped, are designed to

enhance the appearance of your vehicle and to provide

auxiliary lighting when your vehicle is used off road.

The safety characteristics of these lamps are limited and

they are not intended to be used in conjunction with,

or in place of, existing vehicle lighting. The lamps are not

to be used on any public street or highway and are to

be covered when not in use. Check your state and local

laws before installing or using any auxiliary lighting.

In some states it may be necessary to remove the roof

lamps when operating the vehicle on the highway.

The button for the off-road lamps is located in the

overhead console.

To use the lamps, be sure the engine is running.

Remove the covers form the lamps and press the button

to turn them on. Press the button again to turn them

off. An indicator light will glow near the button when the

lamps are on.

Notice:

Turning on the off-road lamps before

removing the lamp covers could damage the

off-road lamps and the covers. Always remove the

covers before turning on the off-road lamps.

The off-road lamps will remain on even after the ignition

is turned off. The off-road lamps button must be

pressed to turn them off.

Interior Lamps

To turn on the dome lamps, with the vehicle doors

closed, turn the thumbwheel all the way up.
