2022 Jeep Compass Owners Manual - Interior Lights



Interior Lights

Courtesy and dome lights are turned on when the front doors are opened, or when the dimmer control is rotated to its farthest upward position.

The front map/reading lights are turned on by the switches in the center of the overhead console.

>Overhead Light Switches

To protect the battery, the interior lights will turn off automatically 15 minutes after the ignition is placed in the OFF position. This will occur if the interior lights were turned on manually or are on because a door is open. This includes the glove compartment light and the cargo area light. To restore interior light operation, either place the ignition in the ON/RUN position, or push the light switch on and then back off.

INSTRUMENT PANEL DIMMER CONTROL

The instrument panel dimmer control is part of the headlight switch and is located on the driver’s side of the instrument panel.

Rotating the instrument panel dimmer up or down will adjust the brightness of the instrument panel lights ONLY when the parking lights or headlights are turned on, AND ONLY if the built in light sensor determines that the ambient light levels are low enough that the backlighting should be enabled.
