Battery saver function
The purpose of this feature is to prevent
the battery from being discharged if the
lights are left in the ON position.
The system automatically shuts off the
parking lights after the engine is off and
the driver's door is opened.
However, the position lamps stay ON
even when the driver-side door is
opened if the light switch is operated
after the engine is turned off.
If necessary, to keep the lamps on turn
the position lamps OFF and ON again
using the headlamp switch on the steer
-
ing column after the engine is turned off.
Daytime Running Light (DRL) (if
equipped)
The Daytime Running Light (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see the front
of your vehicle during the day, especially
after dawn and before sunset.
It automatically turns ON once the
engine is started.
The DRL system turns OFF when:
僅 The engine is OFF
僅 The headlights are ON
僅 The front fog light is ON (if equipped)
僅 The engine is turned ON whilst the
parking brake is applied (DRL remains
off until driving)
