Controls and features Setting autolamp 1. Make sure the headlamp control is in the OFF position. Leaving the headlamp control on will override the autolamp. 2. Turn the ignition to the ON position or start the vehicle. OFF 3. Slide the delay control all the way to the left. The further you move the knob to the right, the longer the headlamps stay on after the ignition is turned to the OFF position. The autolamp will keep the headlamps on for a maximum of three minutes after the ignition is turned to OFF. 4. The autolamp automatically turns the lamps on and off. The indicator light will illuminate when the headlamps turn on. DELAY AUTOLAMP OFF MAX. Automatic dimming rear view mirror The autolamp/automatic dimming mirror is equipped with an automatic dimming feature. This feature will change from the normal state to the non-glare "active" state when bright lights (glare) reach the mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from front or behind, it will adjust automatically to minimize glare. The mirror will automatically return to the normal position whenever the vehicle is placed in R (Reverse) (when the mirror is in the ON position). This helps to ensure a bright clear view in the mirror when backing up. DELAY AUTOLAMP OFF MAX. 98
