My girlfriend alerted me to this Facebook posting. It might come in handy sometime. First I’ve heard of this.
Posted on FB; translated from Thai:
“I’d like to share an experience of my car (Seal) entering sleep mode. Before the incident, the battery was at 63%.
8:05 AM: Unlocked the car normally, took belongings out of the car, but didn't lock it.
8:30 AM: Tried to open the trunk, but couldn't. Couldn't lock the car either. Couldn't start the car; the screen and lights were off. Suspected the 12V battery was depleted (the car had been used for about 5 months, 20,000 km).
8:40 AM: Decided to call for emergency assistance from the service hotline.
8:50 AM: Was informed that a trained technician would come for initial inspection around 10:30 AM, as the service center was 100 km away. In the meantime, gathered information about the symptoms and consulted with the dealership where the car was purchased. They tried to gather information and contacted technicians at the service center. Conclusion: The car entered sleep mode. Was instructed to press the door handle button twice or hold it down. After that, start the car. Once the car is started, check the small screen and follow the instructions displayed. It involves turning the steering wheel left and right until it stops on both sides. After doing this, the car should function normally."
