PARK for one hour, it will automatically turn
off the vehicle. Notifications have been
designed into this feature to raise awareness
of the timed event. The instrument cluster
display will display "Ready to drive" accom-
panied with three audible chimes while
exiting. The interior warnings will occur
regardless if the key fob remains in the
vehicle or is removed. The horn will sound
three times if the fob is removed from the
vehicle and the ignition state is in READY
mode. To restart the vehicle, follow the
normal process for starting your vehicle.
The Keyless Push Button Ignition has four
operating positions; three of which are
labeled and will illuminate when in position.
The three positions are OFF, ACC, and ON/
RUN. The fourth position is START: during
start, the RUN indicator will illuminate.
NOTE:
Pushing the START/STOP ignition button
may only activate the Electric Propulsion
System and not start the vehicle's engine
(if running the engine is not currently
required by the Hybrid system). READY
will show in instrument cluster display
whenever the vehicle is operating in EV
(Electric Vehicle) mode and the vehicle is
stationary.
If the vehicle's ignition is in either ACC or
RUN, the vehicle charge indicator may not
display a value greater than 99% state of
charge due to vehicle loads.
