STARTING AND OPERATING
STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust the
inside and outside mirrors, fasten your seat belt, and if
present, instruct all other occupants to buckle their seat
belts.

The gear selector must be in the NEUTRAL (N) or PARK (P)
position before you can start the engine. Apply the brakes
before shifting into any driving gear.

start, the starter will disengage automatically after 10
seconds.
4. If you wish to stop the cranking of the engine prior to
the engine starting, push the ENGINE START/STOP

To Turn Off The Engine Using The ENGINE START/STOP

2. If the gear selector is not in PARK, the ENGINE
START/STOP button must be held for two seconds or
three short pushes in a row with the vehicle speed
above 5 mph (8 km/h) before the engine will shut off.
The ignition will remain in the ACC position until the

WARNING!
Before exiting a vehicle, always come to a complete
stop, then shift the automatic transmission into
PARK and apply the parking brake.
Always make sure the keyless ignition node is in the
OFF position, key fob is removed from the vehicle
and vehicle is locked.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Leaving children in a
vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave
the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter
‘n Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN position. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehi-
cles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may cause
serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the following
precautions are not observed:
Do not shift from REVERSE (R), PARK, or NEUTRAL
into any forward gear when the engine is above idle
speed.
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop and the engine
is at idle speed.
Before shifting into any gear, make sure your foot is
firmly on the brake pedal.
