Starting and Stopping the Engine
3. Shift into park (P).
4. Fully press the accelerator pedal.
5. Briefly press the push button ignition
switch.
Fast Restart
The fast restart feature allows you to
restart your vehicle within 20 seconds of
switching it off, even if it does not detect
a valid passive key.
Within 20 seconds of switching the engine
off, press the brake pedal and press the
push button ignition switch. After 20
seconds, you can no longer start your
vehicle if it does not detect a valid passive
key.
Once your vehicle starts, it remains running
until you press the push button ignition
switch, even if your vehicle does not detect
a valid passive key. If you open and close
a door while your vehicle is running, the
system searches for a valid passive key.
After 20 seconds, you can no longer start
your vehicle if it does not detect a valid
passive key.
Automatic Engine Shutdown
This feature automatically shuts down
your vehicle if it has been idling for an
extended period. The ignition also turns off
to save battery power. Before your vehicle
shuts down, a message appears in the
information display showing a timer
counting down. If you do not intervene
within 30 seconds, your vehicle shuts
down. Another message appears in the
information display to inform you that your
vehicle has shut down to save fuel. Start
your vehicle as normal.
Automatic Engine Shutdown Override
Note: You cannot permanently switch off
the automatic shutdown. When you switch
it off temporarily, it turns on at the next
ignition cycle.

countdown has expired by doing any of the
following:

example pressing the brake or
accelerator pedal.
• You can temporarily switch off the
shutdown any time the ignition is on
using the information display. See

of information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the current
ignition cycle only).
Stopping the Engine When Your
