light sensors, as this would interfere with both the automatic oper -
ation of the head ligh t s and the automatic dimming of the inside
mirror(s).

three times in
succession,
leaving home will not turn on the lights a fourth time to
safeguard the battery and lights.

larly, you can leave it activated at all times wi t hout risking perma-
nent strain on the electrical system. As the system is contro lled by
light sensors, it wi ll only be energi zed in darkness.

approac hing and departing a vehicle parked in the dark wi ll strain
the batte ry. This applies particularly if only short distances are
driven between stops . Occasiona lly drive longer distances to make
sure the battery is recharged sufficient ly.
