If the vehicle is left in ACCESSORY mode for more than 20 minutes or IGNI-
TION ON mode (the engine is not running) for more than an hour with the
shift lever in P, the engine switch will automatically turn off. However, this
function cannot entirely prevent battery discharge. Do not leave the vehicle
with the engine switch in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode for long peri-
ods of time when the engine is not running.

Automatic engine shut off feature
●
The vehicle is equipped with a feature that automatically shuts off the
engine when the shift lever is in P with the engine running for an extended
period.
●
The engine will automatically shut off after approximately 1 hour if it has
been left running while the shift lever is in P.
●
The timer for the automatic engine shut off feature will reset if the brake
pedal is depressed or if the shift lever is in a position other than P.
●
After the vehicle is parked, if the door is locked with the door lock switch
(P. 120) from the inside or the mechanical key (P. 560) from the outside,
the automatic engine shut off feature will be disabled. The timer for the auto-
matic engine shut off feature will be re-enabled if the driver's door is
opened.
■
Operation of the engine switch
●
If the switch is not pressed shortly and firmly, the engine switch mode may
not change or the engine may not start.
●
If attempting to restart the engine immediately after turning the engine
switch off, the engine may not start in some cases. After turning the engine
off, please wait a few seconds before restarting the engine.
