either of the following operations:

• Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button three times.
• The steering wheel will not lock. The power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF with
the shift lever in P , and to ACCESSORY with the shift lever in any position other (
than ( P .
• Because turning off the engine also disables the power assist the engine provides
to the steering and braking systems, it will require significantly more physical
effort and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Downshift gears and use both feet
on the brake pedal, if necessary, to slow the vehicle and stop immediately in a
safe place.
