4. If the gear selector is in NEUTRAL, and the vehicle
speed below 5 mph (8 km/h), pushing the ENGINE
START/STOP button once will turn the engine off.
The ignition will remain in the ACC position.
5. If the vehicle speed is above 5 mph (8 km/h), the
ENGINE START/STOP button must be held for two
seconds (or three short pushes in a row) to turn the
engine off. The ignition will remain in the ACC posi-
tion (NOT the OFF position) if the engine is turned
off when the transmission is not in PARK.
NOTE:
If the ignition is left in the ACC or ON/RUN (engine not
running) position and the transmission is in PARK, the
system will automatically time out after 30 minutes of
inactivity and the ignition return to the OFF position.
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

1. Start with the ignition in the OFF position.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once to
change the ignition to the ACC position.
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time
to change the ignition to the RUN position.

return the ignition to the OFF position.
Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Starting Procedure
— Engine Manifold Air Temperature 0°F
To 66°F (–18°C to 19°C)
NOTE:
The temperature displayed in the instrument cluster
does not necessarily reflect the engine manifold air
temperature
page 78. When engine temperatures
fall below 66°F (19°C) the Wait To Start Indicator Light
will remain on indicating the intake air heater system is
active.
Follow the steps in the “Normal Starting” procedure
except:
1. Pushing the engine start button with the driver’s
foot on the brake will move the ignition from OFF or
ACC to RUN, and will illuminate the Wait To Start
Indicator Light. The engine will not immediately
crank, this is normal operation.
2. The Wait To Start Indicator Light will remain on for a
period of time that varies depending on the engine
temperature.
3. While the Wait To Start Indicator Light is on, the
instrument cluster will additionally display a gauge
or bar whose initial length represents the full "Wait
to Start" time period. Its length will decrease until it
disappears when the "Wait to Start" time has
elapsed.
CAUTION!
If the Water in Fuel Indicator Light remains on, DO
NOT START the engine before you drain the water
from the fuel filters to avoid engine damage.
4. After the engine Wait To Start Indicator Light goes
off, the engine will automatically crank.
CAUTION!
Do not crank the engine for more than 25 seconds at
a time or starter motor damage may result. Turn the
ignition switch to the OFF position and wait at least
two minutes for the starter to cool before repeating
start procedure.
5. After engine start-up, check to see that there is oil
pressure.
6. Release the parking brake and drive.
NOTE:
•
Engine idle speed will automatically increase to
1,000 RPM and engage the Variable Geometry Tur-
bocharger at low coolant temperatures to improve
engine warm-up.
•
The engine will not automatically crank after the
engine Wait To Start Indicator Light goes off if a
door or the hood is ajar.
•
If the engine stalls, or if the ignition switch is left ON
for more than two minutes after the Wait To Start
Indicator Light goes out, reset the intake air heater
by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position for
at least 5 seconds and then back ON. Repeat steps
1 through 6 of “Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Starting Proce-
dure – Engine Manifold Air Temperature 0°F To
66°F (–18°C to 19°C).”
