Stopping The Engine

Vehicles Equipped With Electronic Key
(Keyless Ignition):
To shut off the engine with vehicle speed
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), you must push
and hold the START/STOP button or push the
START/STOP button three times consecu-
tively within a few seconds. The engine will
shut down, and the ignition will be placed in
the RUN position.
Turning Off the car (placing the ignition from
the RUN position to the STOP position), the
power supply to the accessories are main-
tained for a period of three minutes.
Opening the driver side door with the ignition
in RUN will sound a short chime that reminds
the driver to place the ignition to STOP.
When the ignition is in the STOP/OFF posi-
tion, the window switches remains active for
three minutes. Opening a front door will can-
cel this function.
After severe driving, idle the engine to allow
the temperature inside the engine compart-
ment to cool before shutting off the engine.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the
engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle)
in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles
(500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km),
speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are
desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration
within the limits of local traffic laws contrib-
utes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle
acceleration in low gear can be detrimental
and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the
factory is a high-quality energy conserving
type lubricant. Oil changes should be consis-
tent with anticipated climate conditions
under which vehicle operations will occur.
For the recommended viscosity and quality
grades, refer to "Fluids And Lubricants" in
"Technical Specifications".
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight
Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may
result.
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during
its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of
operation. This should be considered a nor-
mal part of the break-in and not interpreted
as a problem.

PARK BRAKE

Park Brake System (EPB) that offers greater
