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 lamp when the
key is removed (remote key) or when
the driver turns the engine off (smart
key) and opens the driver-side door.
With this feature, the parking lamps
will turn off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lamps on
when the engine is turned off, perform
the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lamps OFF andON again using the light switch on
the steering column.
Headlamp delay function (if equipped)
If the key is removed from the ignition
switch or placed in the ACC position or
the LOCK/OFF position with the head-
lamps ON, the headlamps (and/or
parking lamps) remain on for about 5
minutes. However, if the driver's door
is opened and closed, the headlights
are turned off after 15 seconds.
However, with the engine off if the dri-
ver’s door is opened and closed, the
headlamps (and/or parking lamps) are
turned off after 15 seconds.
The headlamps (and/or parking lamps)
can be turned off by pressing the lock
button on the remote key or smart key
twice or turning the light switch to the
OFF or AUTO position. However, if you
turn the light switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when it is dark outside, the head-
lamps will not be turned off.
You can activate or deactivate the
Headlamp Delay function from the
User Settings Mode (Light) on the

"LCD Display" section in this
chapter. If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except dri-
ver's door), the battery saver func-
tion does not operate and the
headlamp delay function does not
turn off automatically. Therefore, It
causes the battery to be dis-
charged. In this case, make sure
to turn off the lamp before getting
out of the vehicle.
