What does Toyota ACCESSORY mean?
2 Answers
Toyota accessory refers to the ACC power supply of Toyota vehicles. Before the car is started, if there is an ACC position on the key, simply turning the key to this position can power some low-power devices such as the radio and cigarette lighter. Below are detailed introductions about Toyota: 1. Overview: Toyota Motor Corporation is a Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TYO), Nagoya Stock Exchange (NAG), New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), and London Stock Exchange (LSE). 2. Others: The founder is Kiichiro Toyoda (1894-1952), and the current president is Akio Toyoda (grandson of Kiichiro Toyoda). The headquarters are located in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan, and Bunkyo, Tokyo.
Toyota ACCESSORY refers to the first position of the vehicle's ignition switch, or the pure electric power-on mode for some new energy models. In this state, the engine does not start, but some electrical appliances in the car can work. For example, if you want to listen to the radio or charge your phone while waiting in the car, you can rotate the key to the ACC position to get power, and you can also operate the electric windows. However, remember not to use this mode for a long time, otherwise it may easily drain the battery. Some newer models also use this mode to control ambient lighting and USB ports. Last time I took a break at a service area, I relied on the ACC position to charge for half an hour, and when I came back, I found that the dashboard showed a slight drop in battery voltage. So it's fine to use it for a short time, but it's better to start the engine if it exceeds half an hour.
