Entry Lighting
The headlamps, taillamps, license plate lamps, back-up lamps, dome lamps, and most of the interior lights turn on briefly when the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
is pressed.
See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation .
When the driver door is opened, all control lights, Driver Information Center (DIC) lights and door pocket lights turn on. After about 30 seconds the exterior lamps turn off, and then the dome and remaining interior lights will dim to off. Entry lighting can be disabled manually by changing the ignition out of the OFF position, or by pressing the RKE
button.
This feature can be activated or deactivated in the Configuration Settings menu in the Info Display.
Press CONFIG on the audio system to call up the menu. See Vehicle Personalization .
