Turning the vehicle off

The vehicle typically powers down automatically, but you can also manually turn it off in the center display.

Your vehicle keeps track of certain actions after parking, such as people unbuckling seat belts and opening their doors to get out. This allows the vehicle to automatically turn itself off after you lock and leave it. However, in some situations, you may want to manually turn it off.

 Note

In some situations, the automatic power-down, including locking, can be interrupted or prevented. This can happen if a door is not fully closed, a key is left in the vehicle or movement is detected in the vehicle.

Turning the vehicle off manually

Press the vehicle symbol in the bottom bar and go to Settings.
Go to Controls → Car modes → Power options.
The Power options menu is shown.
Select one of the power options.
The vehicle powers down to the selected level.

If you power your vehicle down and remain seated in the driver's seat, you can press the brake pedal to start your vehicle again.

 Note

After being turned off, a number of essential systems remain available, such as key detection, alarm, internet connectivity and battery monitoring. Under normal conditions, they only use a small amount of power.
