switch. This button comes as an assembly,
and is not removable. This can damage the
silicone shield.
NOTE:
In extreme climates (hot or cold environments), the
vehicle will need to be plugged in prior to starting
the vehicle, or the vehicle may not start.
WARNING!
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the

key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with

access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended

is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle,

or in a location accessible to children, and do
not leave the Keyless Enter 'n Go™ Ignition in
the ACC or RUN position. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside parked

vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup
may cause serious injury or death.
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for theft.
Always turn the vehicle off, remove the key fobs
from the vehicle, and lock all the doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended.

If the brake is pressed and the ignition is placed in
the RUN position with an EVSE connected to the
vehicle, the instrument cluster display will not
display the READY state. When the Electric Vehicle
