Features of your vehicle
Battery saver function
• The purpose of this feature is to
prevent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatically
turns off the position lamps when
the driver turns off the engine and
opens the driver-side door.
• With this feature, the position
lamps will be turned off automati-
cally if the driver parks on the side
of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lamps on
when the engine is turned off per-
form the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the position lamps OFF
and ON again.
Headlamp escort function
The headlamps (and/or position lamp)
will remain on for approximately 5 min-
utes after the engine start/stop button
is turned to the ACC or OFF position.
However, if the driver’s door is opened
and closed, the headlamps are turned
off after 15 seconds.
The headlamps can be turned off by
pressing the lock button on the smart
key twice or turning off the light
switch from the headlight or Auto
light position.
❈Traffic Change (For Europe)
The low beam light distribution is
asymmetric. If you go abroad to a
country with opposite traffic direc-
tion, this asymmetric part will dazzle
oncoming car driver. To prevent daz-
zle, ECE regulation demand several
technical solutions (ex. automatic
change system, adhesive sheet,
down aiming). This headlamps are
designed not to dazzle opposite driv-
ers. So, you need not change your
headlamps in a country with oppo-
site traffic direction.
LIGHTING
CAUTION
If the driver gets out of the vehi-
cle through other doors (except
driver's door), the battery saver
function does not operate.
Therefore, it causes the battery
to be discharged. In this case,
make sure to turn off the lamp
before getting out of the vehicle.
