Normal Starting

Using The ENGINE START/STOP Button

1. The transmission must be in PARK.

2. Press and hold the brake pedal while pressing the

ENGINE START/STOP button once.

3. The system takes over and attempts to start the

vehicle. If the vehicle fails to 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, press the button again.

NOTE:

Normal starting of either a cold or a warm engine

is obtained without pumping or pressing the accelerator
pedal.

To Turn Off The Engine Using ENGINE
START/STOP Button

1. Place the shift lever/gear selector in PARK, then press

and release the ENGINE START/STOP button.

2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position.

3. If the shift lever/gear selector is not in PARK, the

ENGINE START/STOP button must be held for two
seconds or three short presses in a row with the
vehicle speed above 5 mph (8 km/h) before the engine
will shut off. The ignition switch position will remain
in the ACC position until the shift lever/gear selector
is in PARK and the button is pressed twice to the OFF
position. If the shift lever/gear selector is not in PARK
and the ENGINE START/STOP button is pressed
once, the EVIC (if equipped) will display a “Vehicle
Not In Park” message and the engine will remain
