AUTO headlight

The parking light and headlight will be turned ON or OFF automatically depending on the amount of daylight as measured by the ambient light sensor (1) at the upper end of the windshield glass.

Even with the AUTO headlight feature in operation, it is recommended to manually turn ON the headlights when driving at night or in a fog, driving in the rain, or when you enter dark areas, such as tunnels and parking facilities.

  • Do not cover or spill anything on the sensor (1) located at the upper end of the windshield glass.

  • Do not clean the sensor using a window cleaner, the cleanser may leave a light film which could interfere with sensor operation.

Battery saver function

To prevent the battery from being discharging, the system automatically turns off the parking lights when the driver turns the vehicle off and opens the driver's door.

To keep the lights on when the vehicle is turned off:

  1. Open the driver's door.

  2. Turn the parking lights OFF and ON again using the headlight switch.

Headlight delay function

If the Start/Stop button is in the ACC position or the OFF position with the headlights ON, the headlights (and/or Parking lights) remain on for about 5 minutes. However, if the driver's door is opened and closed, the headlights are turned off after 15 seconds. Also, with the vehicle off if the driver's door is opened and closed, the headlights (and/or Parking lights) are turned off after 15 seconds.

The headlights (and/or Parking lights) can be turned off by pressing the lock button on the smart key twice or turning the headlight switch to the OFF or AUTO position.

You can enable the headlight delay function by selecting Setup > Vehicle > Lights > Headlight Delay (or Headlight time-out) in the infotainment system.

The infotainment system may change after software updates. For more information, refer to the user's manual provided in the infotainment system and the quick reference guide.

If the driver exits the vehicle through another door besides the driver door, the battery saver function does not operate and the headlight delay function does not turn OFF automatically. This may cause the battery to discharge. To avoid battery discharge, turn OFF the headlights manually from the headlight switch before exiting the vehicle.
