Toyota RAV4: Using the interior lights

Interior lights list

Your Toyota is equipped with the illuminated entry system to assist in entering the vehicle. Owing to the function of the system, the lights shown in the following illustration (except the luggage compartment light) automatically turn on/off according to the presence of the electronic key (vehicles with smart key system), whether the doors are locked/unlocked, whether the doors are opened/closed, and the “ENGINE START STOP” switch mode or the engine switch position. The luggage compartment light turns on/off according to whether the back door is opened/closed.
