Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the manual parking lamps or headlamps have been left
on, the exterior lamps will turn off as soon as the ignition
is turned off or RAP is active. This protects against
draining the battery in case you have accidentally left the
headlamps or parking lamps on. The battery saver does
not work if the headlamps are turned on after the ignition
switch is turned to off.
If you need to leave the lamps on, use the exterior lamp
control to turn the lamps back on.
