Default no warning beep when I turn off car with headlights on

I have a '93 hatch I bought a few weeks ago and have drained the battery twice already. If i turn off the car and leave the headlights on, the car doesn't give a warning tone. However, it will start beeping if I leave the keys in the ignition and open the door. Are 93 hatchbacks supposed to warn you when the headlights are left on, or is this normal?

Mine doesn't buzz either, I don't think 92-95 hatches use that feature.

Hatches were the cheapo cars when they came. They didn't even have stereos. Basic transportation, pure and simple.

Lights on buzzer was considered a luxury not worth paying for.

I added one for $3.00 a decade ago (and still works, amazingly).

They will not buzz, you need to either remember or check this out, I'm going to do it soon. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=290569

Hope that helps.
