LIGHTING
Battery saver function
• The purpose of this feature is to pre‐
vent the battery from being dis‐
charged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lights when the
driver removes the ignition key
(smart key: turns off the engine) and
opens the driver-side door.
• With this feature, the parking lights
will be turned off automatically if the
driver parks on the side of road at
night.
If necessary, to keep the lights on
when the ignition key is removed,
(smart key: turns off the engine) per‐
form the following:
1. Open the driver-side door.
2. Turn the parking lights OFF and ON
again using the light switch on the
steering column.
Headlight escort function (if
equipped)
The headlights (and/or taillights) will
remain on for approximately 5 minutes
after the ignition key is removed when
the engine is turned off. However, if
the driver’s door is opened and closed,
the headlights are turned off after 15
seconds.
The headlights can be turned off by
pressing the lock button on the trans‐
mitter (or smart key) twice or turning
off the light switch from the headlight
or Auto light position.
CAUTION
If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except driver's
door), the battery saver function
does not operate and the headlight
escort function does not turn off au‐
tomatically. Therefore, it causes the
battery to be discharged. In this
case, make sure to turn off the lamp
before getting out of the vehicle.
Headlight welcome function (if
equipped)
When the headlight switch is in the ON
or AUTO position and all doors (and tail‐
gate) are closed and locked, if you press
the door unlock button on the trans‐
mitter (or smart key), the headlights
will come on for about 15 seconds.
If the headlight switch is in the AUTO
position, the function can only operate
at night.
At this time, if you press the door un‐
lock button again or door lock button
on the transmitter (or smart key), the
headlights will turn off immediately.
