• DOOR (2):

In the DOOR position, the map light and room light come on when any door is opened, regardless of the ignition key position. When the doors are unlocked using the transmitter (or smart key), the map light and room light come on for approximately 30 seconds, until any door is opened.

The map light and room light gradually turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed. However, if the ignition switch is turned on or all doors are locked, the map light and room light turn off immediately. If a door is opened with the ignition switch in the ACC or LOCK position, the map light and room light stay on for approximately 20 minutes. However, if a door is opened with the ignition switch in the ON position, the map light and room light stay on continuously. If the Type B room light switch is set to OFF, it does not operate.

  • ON (3): The map light and room light stay on continuously.
  • OFF (4): The lights remain off even when a door is open.

✽ NOTICE

When the light is turned on by pressing the lens (1), the light does not turn off even if the switch (2) is in the OFF position.
