ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions — With
Driver’s Foot Off The Brake Pedal (In PARK Or
NEUTRAL Position)
The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar
to an ignition switch by providing three positions:
OFF, ACC and ON/RUN. To change the ignition
position without starting the vehicle (to power
certain accessories), follow these steps:
1. Start with the ignition in the OFF position.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button one
time, without the brake pedal being pressed,
to place the ignition in the ON/RUN position
(instrument cluster will display “Ignition or
Accessory On”).
NOTE:

The vehicle is not able to be driven in
the Ignition or Accessory On position, see
“Achieving Vehicle READY Using The
ENGINE START/STOP Button” previously
defined in this section for further informa-
tion.

The gear selector will turn but only PARK
and NEUTRAL are accessible in the Ignition
or Accessory On position.
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a
second time, without the brake pedal being
pressed, to return the ignition to the OFF
position (instrument cluster will display “OFF”).
NOTE:
Only press one pedal at a time while driving the
vehicle. Torque performance of the vehicle could
be reduced if both pedals are pressed at the same
time. If pressure is detected on both pedals simul-
taneously, a warning message will display in the
instrument cluster
