AUTOMATIC ENGINE STOP
What Is Automatic Engine Stop
Automatic engine stop is a feature that
switches the engine off if it has been idling
for an extended period to help you save
fuel.
How Does Automatic Engine Stop
Work
Automatic engine stop turns the engine
off. The ignition also turns off in order to
save battery power. Before the engine
shuts down, a message appears in the
information display showing a timer
counting down. If you do not intervene
within 30 seconds, the engine shuts down.
Another message appears in the
information display to inform you that the
engine has shut down in order to save fuel.
Start your vehicle as you normally do.
