Once the engine starts, release the brake

IF THE ENGINE FAILS TO START
All vehicles
If the engine fails to start when
the engine START/STOP button
is pressed, and the vehicle has
been in a recent collision, seek
qualified assistance.
If the engine fails to start, and a valid
Smart key is inside the vehicle, a check
must be made to determine the cause. To
do this:
1. Switch on the vehicle's ignition. See
100, SWITCHING ON THE IGNITION.
2. Check the Instrument panel for any
illuminated warning lamps, and the
Message centre for warning messages.
Seek qualified assistance if necessary.
See 54, WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS and 50, WARNING
AND INFORMATION MESSAGES.
3. Switch off the vehicle's ignition.
Alternatively, if the engine fails to start,
the alarm system may need to be reset.
To reset the alarm system, lock and unlock
the vehicle. See 4, UNLOCKING THE
VEHICLE.
If the engine still fails to start, consult a
Retailer/Authorised Repairer.
