To Turn Off The Vehicle Using ENGINE START/
STOP Button
1. Place the gear selector in PARK, then push and
release the ENGINE START/STOP button.
2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position.
3. If the gear selector is not in PARK, the ENGINE
START/STOP button must be held for two sec-
onds, or pushed three short times 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 gear selector
is in PARK and the button is pushed twice to the
OFF position. If the gear selector is not in PARK
and the ENGINE START/STOP button is pushed
once, the instrument cluster display will display a
“Vehicle Not In Park” message and the engine will
remain running. Never leave a vehicle out of the
PARK position, or it could roll. The vehicle will also
remain in propulsion system active mode.
NOTE:
If the outside ambient temperature is 32°F (0°C) or
below, the instrument cluster will request the vehicle to
be plugged to provide conditioning of the vehicle.
Automatic Shutdown
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shutdown
feature. If the vehicle is left in READY mode (vehicle
running) with the gear selector in PARK for one hour
after the driver exits, this feature will automatically turn
the vehicle off. Notifications have been added into this
feature to raise awareness of the timed event:
• In the interior of the vehicle, the instrument cluster
will display “Vehicle is Ready To Drive”, and will be
accompanied by three audible chimes while exit-
ing. These interior warnings will occur regardless of
whether the key fob remains in the vehicle or is
removed.
• For the exterior of the vehicle, the horn will sound
three times if the fob is removed from the vehicle
and the vehicle is in the “READY” mode.
Please consider this feature when intentionally running
the vehicle for extended periods of time over one
hour. To restart the vehicle, follow the normal vehicle
starting process.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is left in the ACC or RUN (engine not
running) position and the transmission is in PARK, the
system will automatically time out (shut down) after an
initial 60 minutes of inactivity, followed by the addi-
tional amount of time for power accessory delay se-
lected in the radio settings menu. Once the vehicle
times out, it will switch to the OFF position.
