Battery Saver Feature

  • This feature is designed to prevent battery discharge. The system automatically turns off the parking lights when the driver removes the ignition key (smart key: stops the engine) and opens the driver's door.
  • With this feature, the parking lights will automatically turn off. This is useful if the driver parks at the roadside at night.

If you need the lights to remain on when the ignition key is removed (smart key: engine stopped), do the following:

1. Open the driver's door.

2. Turn the parking lights off and on again using the light switch on the steering column.
