Why does the light reminder buzzer sound?

2009–2014

The buzzer sounds when the engine switch is off, the driver's door is open, the key is removed, and the lights remain on.

Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary while the engine is not running, to help prevent battery discharge.

2009–2014

If a door is not fully closed, fully close it to stop the buzzer, then lock the vehicle again.
