Retained Accessory Power (RAP)

~1min read

These vehicle accessories may be used for up to 10 minutes after the engine is turned off:

  • Audio System
  • Power Windows

The power windows will continue to work for up to 10 minutes or until any door is opened. The radio will work when the key is in ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY. Once the key is turned from ON/RUN to LOCK/OFF, the radio will continue to work for 10 minutes, or until the driver door is opened or the key is removed from the ignition.
