ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions — With

The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar

OFF, ACC and RUN. To change the ignition mode
without starting the vehicle (to power certain accesso-
ries), follow these steps:
1. Starting with the ignition in the OFF mode.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once,
without brake pedal being pressed, to place the
ignition in the ACC mode (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 mode (instrument cluster
will display “Ignition or Accessory On”).
NOTE:
• The vehicle is not able to be driven in the “Igni-
tion or Accessory On” mode, see “Achieving
Vehicle Is Ready To Drive Mode Using the EN-
GINE START / STOP Button” previously de-
fined 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” mode.
4. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third
time, without brake pedal being pressed, to return
the ignition to the OFF mode (instrument cluster
