Stopping
1. Place the shift lever in PARK.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once. The ignition switch will return to the
OFF position.

If the shift lever is not in PARK, the ENGINE START/STOP button must be held for two
seconds and vehicle speed must be above 5 MPH (8 km/h) before the engine will shut off.
RUN Position With Engine Off

The following functions are with the driver' s foot OFF the Brake Pedal (Transmission in
PARK or NEUTRAL Position).
Starting With The Ignition Switch In The OFF Position:
1. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once to change the ignition switch to the
RUN position.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time to return the ignition switch to
the OFF position.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch is left in the RUN (engine not running) position and the transmis-
sion is in PARK, the system will automatically time out after 30 minutes of inactivity and
the ignition will switch to the OFF position.
In case the ignition switch does not change with the push of a button, the RKE transmit-
ter (Key Fob) may have a low or dead battery. In this situation, a back up method can be
used to operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side (side opposite of the emergency
key) of the Key Fob against the ENGINE START/STOP button and push to operate the
ignition switch.
