The fog lamps will turn off while the high-beam headlamps are turned on. Some localities have laws that require the headlamps to be on along with the fog lamps. Mirror Reading Lamps Your vehicle has reading lamps on the rearview mirror. Push the button to turn the reading lamps on and off. Instrument Panel Brightness D Instrument Panel Brightness: The control for this feature is located on the instrument panel to the right of the steering wheel. Turn the knob clockwise to brighten the lights or counterclockwise to dim them. Battery Run-Down Protection Your vehicle is equipped with a battery saver feature designed to protect your vehicle's battery. When any interior lamp is left on and the ignition is turned off, the battery rundown protection system will automatically turn the lamp off after 20 minutes. This will avoid draining the battery. Entry/Exit Lighting The lamps inside your vehicle will go on when you open any door. These lamps will fade out after about 20 seconds after all of the doors have been closed or when the ignition is turned on. These lamps will also go on when you press the trunk release, unlock symbol button or the horn symbol on the keyless entry system transmitter. The lamps inside your vehicle will stay on for about 20 seconds after your key is removed from the ignition to provide an illuminated exit. Accessory Power Outlet(s) The accessory power outlet can be used to connect electrical equipment such as a cellular phone or CB radio. The outlet can accept electrical equipment rated at a maximum of 20 amps. The accessory power outlet is located on the instrument panel, under the radio. To use the outlet, remove the cover. When not in use, always cover the outlet with the protective cap. Notice: Leaving electrical equipment on for extended periods will drain the battery. Always turn off electrical equipment when not in use and do not plug in equipment that exceeds the maximum amperage rating. 3-15
