WARNING!
•
When exiting 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 oth-
ers could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.
•
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
ON/RUN position. A child could operate power win-
dows, 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 thieves.
Always remove key fob from the vehicle and lock all
doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

OFF position. In addition to the chime, the message
will display "Ignition Or Accessory On" in the cluster.

IGNITION — PHEV ONLY
This feature allows the driver to operate the ignition
switch with the push of a button as long as the key fob
is in the passenger compartment.
NOTE:
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shutdown
feature. If the vehicle is left with the ignition in the RUN
position (engine not running) with gear selector in PARK
for 30 minutes, it will automatically turn off the vehicle.
If the driver door is opened, then closed while propul-
sion is active and the vehicle is in PARK, the vehicle will
shut down. Notifications have been designed into this
feature to raise awareness of the timed event by show-
ing messages in the instrument cluster display.
The instrument cluster display will also show the message
"Ready to Drive" accompanied with three audible chimes
while the driver door is opened while the ignition state is
in READY mode. The interior warnings will occur regard-
less of whether the key fob remains in the vehicle or is

signals will flash, if the key fob is removed from the
vehicle while the ignition state is in READY mode.
To restart the vehicle, follow the normal process for
starting your vehicle.
The Keyless Push Button Ignition has several operating
modes that are labeled and will illuminate when in posi-
tion. These modes are OFF, ACC, RUN, and START.

Pushing the START/STOP ignition button may only acti-
vate the Electric Propulsion system and not start the
vehicle's engine (if running the engine is not currently
required by the Hybrid system). READY will show in the
instrument cluster display whenever the vehicle is
operating in Electric mode and the vehicle is
stationary.
