Battery saver function
The purpose of this feature is to pre-vent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatically
turns off the exterior lights when the
driver removes the ignition key (smart
key : turns off the engine) and opens
the driver-side door. (in that order)
With this feature, the parking lights will be turned off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lights on
when the ignition key is removed
(smart key : turns off the engine), per-
form the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights OFF and ON again using the light switch on the
steering column.
Headlight escort function
(if equipped)
If you turn the ignition switch to the ACC
or OFF position with the headlights ON,
the headlights (and/or tail lights) remain
on for about 20 minutes. However, if the
driver’s door is opened and closed, the
headlights are turned off after 30 sec-
onds.
The headlights can be turned off by
pressing the lock button on the transmit-
ter (or smart key) twice or turning the
light switch to the OFF or Auto position.
However, if you turn the light switch to the
Auto position when it is dark outside, the
headlights will not be turned off.
Headlamp welcome function
(if equipped)
When the headlight switch is in the ON or
AUTO position and all doors (and trunk)
are closed and locked, if you press the
door unlock button on the transmitter (or
the smart key), the parking light will come
on for about 15 seconds. At this time, if
you press the door lock button on the
transmitter (or smart key) the parking
light will turn off immediately.
LIGHTING
CAUTION
If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except dri-ver’s door), the battery saver func-tion does not operate and the head-light escort function does not turn off automatically. Therefore, it caus-es the battery to be discharged. Inthis case, make sure to turn off the lamp before getting out of the vehi-cle.

✽ ✽ NOTICE
HID lamps have superior performance
vs. halogen bulbs. HID lamps are esti-
mated by the manufacturer to last twice
as long or longer than halogen bulbs
depending on their frequency of use.
They will probably require replacement
at some point in the life of the vehicle.
Cycling the headlamps on and off more
than typical use will shorten HID lamps
life. HID lamps do not fail in the same
manner as halogen incandescent lamps.
If a headlamp goes out after a period of
operation but will immediately relight
when the headlamp switch is cycled it is
likely the HID lamp needs to be replaced.
HID lighting components are more com-
plex than conventional halogen bulbs
thus have higher replacement cost.

WARNING- Halogen bulbs
Halogen bulbs contain pressur-
ized gas that will produce flying
pieces of glass if broken.
Always handle them carefully, and avoid scratches and abra-
sions. If the bulbs are lit, avoid
contact with liquids.
Never touch the glass with bare hands. Residual oil may cause
the bulb to overheat and burst
when lit.

(Continued)
If a bulb becomes damaged orcracked, replace it immediately
and carefully dispose of it.
Wear eye protection when chang- ing a bulb. Allow the bulb to cool
down before handling it.
