Once your vehicle has started, it
remains running until you press the
start button, even if it does not detect
a valid key. If you open and close a
door while your vehicle is running, the
system searches for a valid key. You
cannot start your vehicle if it does not
detect a valid key within 20 seconds.
Automatic Engine Shutdown
Your vehicle is equipped with a
feature that automatically shuts down
the engine if it has been idling for an
extended period of time. 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 from 30 seconds. 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.

Note:
You cannot permanently switch

by doing any of the following:

the shutdown feature any time the
ignition is on (for the current
ignition cycle only). Use the
information display to do so. See
Information Displays
(page 100).
•
• During the countdown before
engine shutdown, you are
prompted to press OK or RESET
(depending on your type of
information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the
current ignition cycle only).
