4-3. Operating the lights and wipers
■Headlight control sensor (if equipped)
■ Automatic light off system
When the headlights are on: The lights turn off 30 seconds after the power
switch is turned off and a door is opened and all of the doors are closed. (The
lights turn off immediately if on the key is pressed while all the doors
are locked.)
When only the tail lights are on: The lights turn off after the power switch is
turned off and the driver’s door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the power switch to ON mode, or turn the\
light
switch off once, or turn the light switch to once, then turn it to or to
.
If any of the doors is kept open and the power switch off, the lights automati-
cally turn off after 20 minutes.
■ Light reminder buzzer
A buzzer sounds when the power switch is turned off and the driver’s door is
opened while the lights are turned on.
■ Customization
Settings (e.g. light sensor sensitivity) can be changed.
(Customizable features: →P. 638)
The sensor may not function properly if an
object is placed on the sensor, or anything
that blocks the sensor is affixed to the
windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the hybrid system is
off.
