BATTERY SAVER CONTROLNBEL0035S02When the ignition switch is turned from ON (or START) to OFF (or ACC) positions while illumination lamps
are illuminated, the RAP signal is supplied to terminal 10 of the headlamp battery saver control unit from smart
entrance control unit terminal 5.
After counting 45 seconds by the RAP signal from the smart entrance control unit to headlamp battery saver
control unit, the ground supply to terminal 1 of the tail lamp relay from headlamp battery saver control unit
teminals 6 and 14 is terminated.
Then illumination lamps are turned off.
Illumination lamps are turned off when driver or passenger side door is opened even if 45 seconds have not
passed after the ignition switch is turned from ON (or START) to OFF (or ACC) positions while illumination
lamps are illuminated.
When the lighting switch is turned from OFF to 1ST (or 2ND) after illumination lamps are turned off by the
battery saver control, ground is supplied
Ito headlamp battery saver control unit terminals 5 and 13 from lighting switch terminal 11, and
Ito tail lamp relay terminal 1 from headlamp battery saver control unit terminals 6 and 14.
Then illumination lamps illuminate again.

And power is supplied:
Ito vanity mirror illuminations (LH and RH) terminals 1
Ifrom smart entrance control unit terminal 17.
With power and ground supplied, interior lamps turn ON.
INTERIOR LAMP TIMER OPERATIONNBEL0038S08When interior lamp switch is in the ªDOORº position, the smart entrance control unit keeps the interior lamp
illuminated for about 30 seconds when:
Iunlock signal is supplied from driver's door unlock sensor while all doors are closed and key is removed
from ignition key cylinder
Iunlock signal is supplied from multi-remote controller while all doors are closed and driver's door is locked
Ikey is removed from ignition key cylinder while all doors are closed
Idriver's door is opened and then closed while key is removed from the iginition key cylinder. (However, if
the driver's door is closed with the key insered in the ignition key cylinder after the driver's door is opened
with the key removed, the timer is operated.)
The timer is canceled when:
Idriver's door is locked,
Idriver's door is opened, or
Iignition switch is turned ON.
ON-OFF CONTROLNBEL0038S09When the driver side door, front passenger door, rear LH, RH door or back door is opened, the interior room
lamp turns on while the interior room lamp switch is in the ªDOORº position.
BATTERY SAVERNBEL0038S10The lamp turns off automatically when interior lamp, luggage room lamp, spot lamp and/or vanity mirror illu-
mination is illuminated with the ignition key is in OFF position, if the lamp remains lit by the door switch open
signal or if the lamp switch is in ON position for more than 10 minutes.
After lamps turn OFF by the battery saver system, the lamps illuminate again when:
Idriver's door is locked or unlocked,
Idoor is opened or closed,
Ikey is inserted or removed in ignition key cylinder.

Trouble DiagnosesNBEL0048PRELIMINARY CHECK FOR THERMOMETERNBEL0048S02
1 COOL DOWN CHECK
1. Turn the ignition key switch to the ªACCº position.
2. Cool down the ambient air temperature sensor with water or ice, so that the indicated temperature falls.
Does the indicated temperature fall?
Ye s©GO TO 2.
No©The system is malfunctioning. Check the system following ªINSPECTION/COMPASS
AND THERMOMETERº.
2 WARM UP CHECK
1. Leave the vehicle for 10 minutes, so that the indicated temperature rises.
2. With the ignition key in the ªACCº position, disconnect and reconnect the ambient air temperature sensor connector.
Does the indicated temperature rise?
Ye s©The system is OK.
No©The system is malfunctioning. Check the system following ªINSPECTION/COMPASS
AND THERMOMETERº.
NOTE:
IWhen the outside temperature is between 55ÉC (130ÉF) and 70ÉC (158ÉF), the display shows 55ÉC
(130ÉF). When the outside temperature is lower than þ30ÉC (þ20ÉF) or higher than 70ÉC (158ÉF), the dis-
play shows only ª---º.
IThe indicated temperature on the thermometer is not readily affected by engine heat. It changes only when
one of the following conditions is present.
a) The temperature detected by the ambient air temperature sensor is lower than the indicated temperature
on the thermometer.
b) The difference in temperature detected during a period of 40 seconds is less than 1ÉC (1.8ÉF) when vehicle
speed has been greater than 24 km/h (15 MPH) for more than 100 seconds.
(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat or cooling fan operation
during low-speed driving.)
c) The ignition key has been turned to the ªOFFº position for more than 4 hours. (The engine is cold.)
