Light control switch
The light control switch operates when the key is inserted into the ignition switch.
Regardless of the position of the light control switch, the illuminated lights are turned off when the key is removed from the ignition switch.
NOTE
Even if the key is removed from the ignition switch, the lights can be illuminated by operating the light control switch from “OFF” to the “
”
or “
” position. In this case, if the driver’s door is opened, a chirp sound will inform the driver that the lights are illuminated.

• Use of any lights for a long period of time while the engine is not running can cause the battery to discharge.
• Before leaving the vehicle, make sure that the light control switch is turned to the “OFF” position. If the vehicle is left unattended for a long time with the light control switch set to a position other than “OFF”, the battery may be discharged.
