NOTE Automatic stopping of the engine
is not enabled until the car has exceeded
a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h). After
an automatic restart, to stop the engine
you only need to move the vehicle

panel display.

pedal or, for versions/markets where
provided, turn the steering wheel slightly.

lever to R (Reverse) or "AutoStick".
If the gear lever is in "AutoStick" mode,
the engine can be restarted by moving
the lever to + or -.
