will work up to 10 minutes or until
any door is opened. For an
additional 10 minutes of operation,
close all the doors and turn the key
to ON/RUN and then back to
LOCK/OFF.
Starting the Engine
Place the transmission in the
proper gear.
If the vehicle has the keyless
access system, the keyless access
transmitter must be authenticated in
order for the ignition control knob to
turn. The transmitter can be
authenticated either by putting your
foot on the brake pedal or by
pushing the ignition control knob in.
Automatic Transmission
Move the shift lever to P (Park) or
N (Neutral). The engine will not start
in any other position. To restart the
engine when the vehicle is already
moving, use N (Neutral) only.
If the vehicle has the keyless
access system, your foot must be
on the brake pedal to start the
engine. To rotate the ignition control
knob, put your foot on the brake
pedal and turn the ignition control
knob to the START position. If the
ignition control knob does not turn,
try pushing the knob in and turning
again. When the engine begins
cranking, let go of the ignition
control knob, it will return to the ON/
RUN position.
If the transmitter is not in the vehicle
or something is interfering with the
transmitter, the Driver Information
Center (DIC) will display Electronic
Key Not Detected. See

If the battery in the keyless access
transmitter needs replacing, the DIC

The shift lever should be in neutral
position and the parking brake
engaged. Hold the clutch pedal
