your headlamps on and off
by sensing how dark it
is outside.
To operate this feature, slide the control to any position
to vary the lamp time-out.
You can set the delay time from only a few seconds to
three minutes. If you move the control all the way to
MAX, your lamps will remain on for three minutes after
you turn off your engine. If you move the control
almost all the way in the other direction, so it is just on,
the lamps will go off quickly when you turn off your

Courtesy Lamps
When any door is opened, several lamps go on. They
make it easy for you to enter and leave your vehicle. You
can also turn these lamps on by turning the exterior
lamps control clockwise all the way past the normal stop.
Entry Lighting
When you open either front door or press the unlock
button on the remote keyless entry transmitter, the
lamps inside your vehicle will turn on. These lamps will
turn off after about 40 seconds. These lamps will
also turn off if you start the engine or activate the power
door locks.
