Driving Your Vehicle
6-6
Starting the Vehicle
WARNING
• Always wear appropriate shoes when
operating your vehicle. Unsuitable
shoes, such as high heels, ski boots,
sandals, flipflops, etc., may interfere
with your ability to use the brake and
accelerator pedals.
• Do not start the vehicle with the
accelerator pedal depressed.
The vehicle can move which can lead to
an accident.
Information
• The vehicle will start by pressing the
Start/Stop button, only when the smart key
is in the vehicle.
• The vehicle may not start even if the smart
key is in the vehicle but it is not near you
(for example, in the cargo area).
• When the Start/Stop button is in the ACC or
ON position, if any door is open, the system
checks for the smart key. When the smart
key is not in the vehicle, the indicator
will blink and the warning 'Key not in
vehicle' will come on. When all doors are
closed, the chime will also sound for about
5 seconds. Keep the smart key in the vehicle
when in the ACC position or if the vehicle
is in the ready mode ( indicator on).
1. Always carry the smart key with you.
2. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
3. Make sure the gear is in P (Park).
4. Depress the brake pedal.
5. Press the Start/Stop button. If the
vehicle starts, the indicator
illuminates.
Information
• Always start the vehicle with your foot on
the brake pedal. Do not depress the
accelerator while starting the vehicle. Do
not race the motor while warming it up.
• If ambient temperature is low, the
indicator may remain illuminated longer
than the normal amount of time.
To prevent damage to the vehicle:
• If the vehicle turns off while you are in
motion, do not attempt to shift the gear
to the P (Park) position.
If traffic and road conditions permit,
you may put the gear in N (Neutral)
while the vehicle is still moving and
press the Start/Stop button in an
attempt to restart the vehicle.
• Do not push or tow your vehicle to start
the vehicle.
To prevent damage to the vehicle:
Do not press the Start/Stop button for
more than 10 seconds except when the
stop light fuse is blown.
When the stop light fuse is blown, you
cannot normally start the vehicle.
Replace the fuse with a new one. If you
are not able to replace the fuse, you can
start the vehicle by pressing and holding
the Start/Stop button for 10 seconds with
the Start/Stop button in the ACC position.
Pressing the brake pedal many times
when the vehicle is not in the ready mode
( indicator off) increases the
possibility of discharging the 12 V battery.
For your safety always depress the brake
pedal before starting the vehicle.
