engine off for approximately 45 minutes.
Turn the ignition off as soon as possible to protect the battery. This

state of charge has recovered. Turning off unnecessary electrical loads
will allow faster battery state-of-charge recovery.

when the battery management system detects an extended low-voltage
condition. Various vehicle features will be disabled to help preserve the
battery. Turn off as many of the electrical loads as soon as possible to

features will operate again as normal.
