Battery saver function
• The purpose of this feature is to pre-
vent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lights when the
driver turns off the hybrid system and
opens the driver-side door.

be turned off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lights on
when the smart key is turned, perform
the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights OFF and ON
again using the light switch on the
steering column.

If you turn the engine start/stop button to
the ACC or OFF position with the head-
lights ON, the headlights (and/or tail
lights) remain on for about 20 minutes.
However, if the driver's door is opened
and closed, the headlights are turned off
after 30 seconds.
The headlights can be turned off by
pressing the lock button on the smart key
twice or turning the light switch to the
OFF or Auto position.
However, if you turn the light switch to the
Auto position when it is dark outside, the
headlights will not be turned off.

through doors other than the (dri-
ver's door), the battery saver func-
tion does not operate and the head
lamp delay does not turn off auto-
matically.Therefore, the battery may
become discharged. In this case,
make sure to turn off the lamps
before getting out of the vehicle.
