Your Chevrolet is equipped with a battery saver feature
designed to protect your vehicle’s battery.
When any interior lamp
(trunk, reading, dome, glove
box, etc.) is left on and the ignition is turned OFF, the
battery rundown protection system will automatically
turn the lamp off after
20 minutes. This will avoid
draining the battery. This system does not protect
against leaving on the headlamps.
To reactivate the interior lamps, either:
The ignition must be turned on,
The activated lamp switch must be turned off, then
on,
OR
Mirrors
A front door must be opened.
Inside DaylNight Rearview Mirror
The battery rundown protection feature will also be
activated when any door is left open.
If your vehicle is left with the ignition off for over
24 days, the battery power to the clock and audio system
will turn
off to reduce the battery drain. When the
ignition
is turned on again, battery power will be
resupplied. Under these conditions it will be necessary
to reset the clock and audio system settings.
To reduce glare from lamps behind you, move the lever
toward you to the night position.
