The switch on this lamp has three positions. The on position will turn on the lamp anytime. The door position will turn on the lamp whenever a door is opened. The off position will shut off the lamp completely, even while a door is opened. Your dome lamp may be equipped with two rear reading lamps. See "Rear Reading Lamps" following.
When you open any door, the lamps inside of your vehicle will go on. These lamps will fade out 20 seconds after the last door is closed, or when the ignition is turned on after all doors have been closed. These lamps will also go on when you press the trunk release button, the unlock button or the panic button on the remote keyless entry transmitter.
The lamps inside of your vehicle will turn on for about 10 seconds after your key is removed from the ignition to provide an illuminated exit.
Push the lens to turn the reading lamps on and off. The reading lamps will turn on when the door is open if the dome lamp is in the door position. The reading lamps will also turn on with the dome lamp switch in the on position. The lamps will not turn on if the door is open and the dome lamp is in the off position.

Your vehicle has a battery run-down protection feature designed to protect your vehicle's battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, reading, or visor vanity) is left on while the ignition is turned off, the battery run-down protection system will automatically shut the lamp(s) off after 20 minutes. This will avoid draining the battery.
To reactivate the interior lamps, do one of the following:
• | Turn on the ignition. |
• | Turn the exterior lamp control off and then on. |
• | Open a door. |
• | Press any remote keyless entry transmitter button (if equipped). |
• | Press the remote trunk release button. |
• | Press the power door lock switch. |
The battery run-down feature will also be activated when any door on the vehicle is left open and the ignition is in OFF.
