■Daytime running light system (if equipped)

●To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the headlights turn on automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever the engine is started and the parking brake is released. Daytime running lights are not designed for use at night.
●Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve fuel economy.

■Light reminder buzzer

A buzzer sounds when the engine switch is turned to the “LOCK” or “ACC” position and the driver’s door is opened while the lights are turned on.

■Battery-saving function (vehicles with an alarm system or daytime running light system)

In all following conditions, the headlights and the other remaining lights will go off automatically after 20 minutes in order to prevent the vehicle battery from being discharged:

●The engine switch is in the “LOCK” position.
●The headlights and/or tail lights are on.
This function will be canceled in any of the following situations:

●When the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position.
●When the light switch is operated.
●When the door is opened or closed.

NOTICE

■To prevent battery discharge

Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the engine is not running.
