Illumination on Door Handle Activation

Illumination on Door Handle Activation is a standard
feature intended to provide enhanced security and
convenience by allowing the driver to activate the
vehicle interior illumination without unlocking or
opening any vehicle door.

The ignition must be off and the doors locked for the
Illumination on Door Handle Activation to work. The
Illumination on Door Handle Activation feature can
function in two ways.

If the driver pulls and releases any front door
handle within one second, the interior lamps will
illuminate until:
D The ignition is turned to ON,
D The power door locks are activated or
D An illumination period of 25 seconds has elapsed.
Or, if the driver pulls and holds any front door handle
for more than one second, the interior lamps will
illuminate until:
D The ignition is turned to ON,
D The door handle is released or
D An illumination period of 50 seconds has elapsed.

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

Delayed Illumination

The Delayed Illumination feature will continue to
illuminate the interior for 25 seconds after all doors have
been closed so that you can find the ignition and buckle
your seat belt at night. Delayed Illumination will not
occur while the ignition is in ON. After 25 seconds have
elapsed, the interior lamps will slowly fade out. The
lamps will fade out before 25 seconds have elapsed
if you:
D Turn the ignition to ON.
D Lock all doors using your remote keyless entry

transmitter (optional).

D Lock the doors using the power door lock switch.
If during the Delayed Illumination period a door is
opened, the timed illumination period will be cancelled,
though the interior lamps will remain on since the door
is opened.
