WARNING!
• When exiting the vehicle, always make sure
the ignition is in the OFF mode, remove the
key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil-
dren to be in a vehicle unattended is danger-
ous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear
selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle
(or in a location accessible to children), and do
not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/
RUN mode. A child could operate power win-
dows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the
following precautions are not observed:
• Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE only
after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
CAUTION!
• Before shifting into any gear, make sure your
foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal with the
exception of shifting between Drive and Low.
Shifting between Drive and Low can occur
without any brake application.
To Turn On The Engine Using ENGINE START/
STOP Button
1. The transmission must be in PARK or
NEUTRAL.
2. Press and hold the brake pedal while pushing the
ENGINE START/STOP button once.
To release the parking brake manually, the ignition
switch must be in the ON/RUN position. Press on
the brake pedal, then push the park brake switch
momentarily.
If the driver shifts into PARK while moving, the
vehicle may Park.
Park will engage
ONLY
when vehicle speed is
1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h) or less.
The MESSAGE “
Vehicle Speed is Too High to
Shift to P
” will display in the Instrument Cluster
Display if vehicle speed is above 1.2 MPH
(1.9 km/h). The gear position indicator will blink
continuously until the selector is returned to the
proper position, or the requested shift can be
completed.
WARNING!
If vehicle speed is not below 1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h)
when the driver shifts into PARK, the transmis-
sion will default to NEUTRAL until the vehicle
speed drops below 1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h) and the
above condition are met, enabling AutoPark. A
vehicle left in the NEUTRAL position can roll.
As an added precaution, always apply the park-
ing brake when exiting the vehicle.

To optimize energy efficiency, the vehicle will auto-
matically control engine operation.
To Turn Off The Vehicle Using
ENGINE START/STOP Button
