Battery Saver

The battery saver feature provides automatic shut-off of the interior lamps after a period of 15 minutes in order to prevent excessive drain on the battery. The lamp(s) fade off as described in the 'Interior Lighting' section that follows.

The battery saver feature is additional to the time-out delay feature and prevents battery drain when an lamp is accidentally left switched on, e.g. glove compartment left open.

When the ignition mode is changed from the ignition power mode 6 or accessory power mode 4 to the off power mode 0, the CJB starts a timer which automatically switches off all interior lamps when the 15 minute period has expired.

Once the timer has expired and the lamps are off, any one of the following will 'wake-up' the battery saver and the interior lamps will function again. The timer will be restarted as soon as an input from one of the following is received by the CJB:

• Ignition mode changed from off power mode 0 to accessory power mode 4, ignition power mode 6 or crank power mode 9.
• Any door, including the tailgate is opened
• An unlock request is received from the Smart Key via the keyless vehicle module
• Front interior lamp switch is pressed.
