Buick 2009 Enclave - Manual (Page 133)

Dome Lamp Override
The dome lamp override button is
located next to the exterior lamps
control.
The dome lamp override sets the
dome lamps to remain off or come on
automatically when a door is opened.
E (Dome Lamp Override): Press
the button in and the dome lamps
remain off when a door is opened.
Press the button again to return it to
the extended position so that the
dome lamps come on when a door
is opened.
Entry Lighting
For vehicles with courtesy lamps,
they come on and stay on for a set
time whenever the unlock symbol
is pressed on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter, if the
vehicle has one.
If a door is opened, the lamps stay
on while it is open and then turn
off automatically about 20 seconds
after the door is closed. If the
unlock symbol is pressed and no
door is opened, the lamps turn
off after about 20 seconds.
Entry lighting includes a feature
called theater dimming. With theater
dimming, the lamps do not turn off at
the end of the delay time. Instead,
they slowly dim and then go out.
The delay time is canceled if the
ignition key is turned to ON/RUN
or the power door lock switch is
pressed. The lamps will dim
right away.
When the ignition is on, illuminated
entry is inactive, which means
the courtesy lamps will not come
on unless a door is opened.
Delayed Entry Lighting
Delayed entry lighting illuminates the
interior for a period of time after
all the doors have been closed.
The ignition must be off for delayed
entry lighting to work. Immediately
after all the doors have been closed,
the delayed entry lighting feature
continues to work until one of
the following occurs:
• The ignition is in ON/RUN.
• The doors are locked.
• An illumination period of about
25 seconds has elapsed.
If during the illumination period
a door is opened, the timed
illumination period is canceled
and the interior lamps remain on.
