WARNING
• Never press the engine start/stop
button for more than 3 seconds
or 3 times successively when the
vehicle is moving. This would
result in the engine turning off
and loss of power assist for the
steering and brakes, which may
lead to loss of directional control
and braking function,
which
could cause an accident.
• Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is engaged in P (Park), set the
parking brake fully and shut the
engine off. Unexpected and sud-
den vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
taken.

• Never reach for the engine
start/stop button, or any other
controls through the steering
wheel while the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of your
hand or arm in this area could
cause a loss of vehicle control,
an accident and serious bodily
injury or death.
• Do not place any movable objects
around the driver’s seat as they
may move while driving, interfere
with the driver and lead to an
accident.
