Engine Start/Stop button
Whenever the front door is opened,
the Engine Start/Stop button will illu-
minate and will go off 30 seconds
after the door is closed (if equipped).
To turn the engine off in an
emergency:
Press and hold the Engine
Start/ Stop button for more than
two seconds OR rapidly press
and release the Engine
Start/Stop button three times
(within three seconds).
If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the engine without
depressing the brake pedal by
pressing the Engine Start/Stop
button with the shift lever in the
N (Neutral) position.
WARNING
• NEVER press the Engine
Start/ Stop button whilst the
vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency. This will result
in the engine turning off and
the loss of power assist for
the steering and brake sys-
tems. This may lead to loss of
directional control and brak-
ing function, which could
cause an accident.
• Before leaving the driver’s
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, set the parking
brake, press the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion, and take the Smart Key
with you. Unexpected vehicle
movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.
