●Turn off the headlights and the
audio system while the engine is
off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electri-
cal components when the vehicle
is running at a low speed for an
extended period, such as in heavy
traffic.

start. (The battery recharges auto-
matically during driving.)

first attempt after the battery has
recharged but will start normally
after the second attempt. This is
not a malfunction.

rized by the vehicle. When the
battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in
before the bat tery was dis-
charged. Before disconnecting the
battery, turn the engine switch off.
