is off.
■Auto power off function
When the shift lever is in P, if the vehicle is left in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON

or one hour (IGNITION ON mode), the “ENGINE START STOP” switch will auto-
matically turn off. However, this function cannot entirely prevent battery discharge.

or IGNITION ON mode for long periods of time when the engine is not running.
