remain on after the door is closed
for a set amount of time, then
automatically turn off.
The exterior lamps turn off
immediately by turning the exterior

Battery Power Protection
This vehicle has a feature to help
prevent the battery from being
drained in case any of the following
lamps are left on: vanity mirror
lamps, cargo lamps, reading lamps,
or glove box lamps. If any of these
lamps are left on, they will
automatically time-out after about
10 minutes. To reset it, the ignition
must be turned on.
Exterior Lighting Battery
Saver
The exterior lamps turn off about
10 minutes after the ignition is
turned off, if the parking lamps or
headlamps have been manually left
on. This protects against draining
the battery. To restart the 10-minute
timer, turn the exterior lamp control
to the off position and then back to
the parking lamp or headlamp
position.
To keep the lamps on for more than
10 minutes, the ignition must be on
or in ACC/ACCESSORY.
