WARNING
When starting the engine
■
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver's seat. Do not depress the accelerator
pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
Caution while driving
■
If engine failure occurs while the vehicle is moving, do not lock or open the doors until
the vehicle reaches a safe and complete stop. Activation of the steering lock in this cir-
cumstance may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
Stopping the engine in an emergency
■
If you want to stop the engine in an emergency while driving the vehicle, press and
●
hold the engine switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly 3 times or more in
succession. (P. 541)
However, do not touch the engine switch while driving except in an emergency. Turn-
ing the engine off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but
the power assist to these systems will be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer
and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
If the engine switch is operated while the vehicle is running, a warning message will be
●
shown on the multi-information display and a buzzer sounds.
When restarting the engine after it was turned off while driving, shift the shift lever to
●
N and press the engine switch.
