Illuminated Entry

Your courtesy lamps will come on and stay on for a set
time whenever you press UNLOCK on the remote
keyless entry transmitter.

If you open a door, the lamps will stay on while it’s open
and then turn off automatically about 25 seconds after
you close it. If you press UNLOCK and don’t open a
door, the lamps will turn off after about 40 seconds.

Illuminated entry includes a feature called theater
dimming. With theater dimming, the lamps don’t just
turn off at the end of the delay time. Instead, they slowly
dim after the delay time until they go out. The delay
time is canceled if you turn the ignition key to RUN or
START, so the lamps will dim right away.

When the ignition is on, illuminated entry is inactive,
which means the courtesy lamps won’t come on unless a
door is opened.

Delayed Entry Lighting

Delayed entry lighting lights your vehicle’s interior for a
period of time after all the doors have been closed.

The ignition must be off for delayed entry lighting to
work. Just after all the doors have been closed, the delayed
entry lighting feature will continue to work until:

D

The ignition is in RUN, or

D

the doors are locked or

D

an illumination period of 25 seconds has elapsed.

If during the illumination period a door is opened, the
timed illumination period will be canceled and the
interior lamps will remain on since a door is open.

Delayed Exit Lighting

This feature illuminates your vehicle’s interior for a
period of time after the ignition key is removed from 
the ignition.

The vehicle’s ignition must be off for delayed exit
lighting to work. When the ignition key is removed,
interior illumination will activate and remain on until:

D

The ignition is in RUN, or

D

the power door locks are activated or

D

an illumination period of 25 seconds has elapsed.

If during the illumination period a door is opened, the
timed illumination period will be canceled and the
interior lamps will remain on since a door is open.
