Following run-in, engine speed and
load can be gradually increased.

Ignition Positions

The vehicle has an electronic keyless
ignition with pushbutton start.
If the pushbutton start is not working,
the vehicle may be near a strong radio
aerial signal causing interference to
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
system. See Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation 0 26.
To shift out of P (Park), the vehicle
must be in ON/RUN mode and the
brake pedal must be applied.
Stopping the Engine/OFF (No
Indicator Light) : When the vehicle is
stopped, press ENGINE START/STOP
once to turn the engine off.
The transmission will shift to P (Park)
automatically.
If the vehicle is in P (Park), the
ignition will turn off, and Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) will remain
active. See Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) 0 184.
Warning
Turning off the vehicle while
moving may cause loss of power
assistance in the brake and steering
systems and disable the airbags.
While driving, only shut the vehicle
off in an emergency.
DRIVING AND OPERATING
If the vehicle must be shut off in an
emergency:
1. Brake using a firm and steady
pressure. Do not pump the
brakes repeatedly. This may
deplete power assist, requiring
increased brake pedal force.
2. Shift the vehicle to N (Neutral).
This can be done while the
vehicle is moving. After shifting
to N (Neutral), firmly apply the
brakes and steer the vehicle to a
safe location.
3. Come to a complete stop, shift to
P (Park), and press ENGINE
START/STOP. The transmission
must be in P (Park) to turn the
ignition switch to the OFF
position.
4. Apply the parking brake. See
Electric Parking Brake 0 193.
If the vehicle cannot be pulled over
and must be shut off while driving,
press and hold ENGINE START/STOP
for longer than two seconds, or press
twice in five seconds.
