ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions — With Driver’s
Foot Off The Brake Pedal (In PARK Or NEUTRAL
Position)
The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar to an
ignition switch by providing three positions: OFF, ACC
and RUN. To change the ignition mode without starting
the vehicle (to power certain accessories), follow these
steps:
1. Start with the ignition in the OFF position.
2.
Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once, without
brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition in the
ACC position (instrument cluster will display “ACC”).
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second
time, without brake pedal being pressed, to place
the ignition in the RUN position (instrument cluster
will display “Ignition or Accessory On”).
NOTE:
○
The vehicle is not able to be driven in the Ignition
or Accessory On position, see “Achieving Vehicle
READY Using The ENGINE START/STOP Button”
previously defined in this section for further
information.
○
The rotary gear selector will turn but only PARK
and NEUTRAL are accessible in the Ignition or
Accessory On position.
4. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time,
without brake pedal being pressed, to return the
ignition to the OFF position (instrument cluster will
display “OFF”).
NOTE:
Only press one pedal at a time while driving the vehicle.
Torque performance of the vehicle could be reduced if
both pedals are pressed at the same time. If pressure
is detected on both pedals simultaneously, a warning
message will display in the instrument cluster.
AUTOPARK
AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist with plac-
ing the vehicle in PARK should the situations on the
following pages occur. It is a back-up system and
should not be relied upon as the primary method by
which the driver shifts the vehicle into PARK.
The conditions under which AutoPark will engage are
outlined on the following pages.
WARNING!
•
Driver inattention could lead to failure to place the
vehicle in PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK that
your vehicle is in PARK by verifying that a solid (not
blinking) “P” is indicated in the instrument cluster
display and near the gear selector. If the "P" indica-
tor is blinking, your vehicle is not in PARK. As an
added precaution, always apply the parking brake
when exiting the vehicle.
•
AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is not
designed to replace the need to shift your vehicle
into PARK. It is a back-up system and should not
be relied upon as the primary method by which the
driver shifts the vehicle into PARK.
ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK that your vehicle is in
PARK by looking for the “P” in the instrument cluster
display and on the gear selector. As an added precau-
tion, always apply the parking brake.
If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver attempts to
turn off the engine, if certain conditions are met, the
vehicle will AutoPark, automatically shifting the vehi-
cle’s transmission to the PARK position. The rotary
shifter will automatically reset itself to the PARK posi-
tion. The vehicle’s ignition will then move to the OFF
position (Engine off). When AutoPark is activated the
instrument cluster will display the message “AutoPark
Engaged”.
AutoPark will engage when all of these conditions are
met:
•
Vehicle is equipped with a gear selector
•
Vehicle is not in PARK
•
Vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less
•
Driver has pushed the ENGINE START/STOP button
If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver exits the
vehicle with the engine running, if certain conditions
are met, the vehicle will AutoPark, automatically shift-
ing the vehicle’s transmission to the PARK position.
The Electric Park Brake SAFE HOLD feature will also
activate in some conditions.
CAUTION!
Engine will remain running.
