Within 20 seconds of switching the
engine off, press the brake pedal and
press the button. After 20 seconds
have expired, you can no longer restart
the engine without the key present
inside your vehicle.
Once the engine has started, it
remains running until you press the
button, even if the system does not
detect a valid key. If you open and
close a door while the engine is
running, the system searches for a
valid key. You cannot restart the
engine if the system does not detect
a valid key within 20 seconds.
Failure to Start
If you cannot start the engine after
three attempts, wait 10 seconds and
follow this procedure:
1. Fully press the brake pedal.
2. Fully press the accelerator pedaland hold it there.
3. Start the engine. Note:
You can crank the engine for a
total of 60 seconds (without the
engine starting) before the starting
system temporarily disables. The 60
seconds does not have to be all at
once. For example, if you crank the
engine three times for 20 seconds each
time, without the engine starting, you
reached the 60-second time limit. A
message appears in the information
display alerting you that you exceeded
the cranking time. You cannot attempt
to start the engine for at least 15
minutes. After 15 minutes, you are
limited to a 15-second engine cranking
time. You need to wait 60 minutes
before you can crank the engine for 60
seconds again.Automatic Engine Shutdown
If your vehicle is equipped with a
keyless ignition, it has a feature that
automatically shuts down the engine
if it has been idling for an extended
period. 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.

Starting and Stopping the Engine

Your vehicle may not pass the I/M test
if the service engine soon indicator is
on or not working properly (bulb is
burned out), or if the OBD-II system
has determined that some of the
emission control systems have not
been properly checked. In this case,
your vehicle is not ready for I/M
testing.
If the vehicle’s engine or transmission
has just been serviced, or the battery
has recently run down or been
replaced, the OBD-II system may
indicate that the vehicle is not ready
for I/M testing. To determine if the
vehicle is ready for I/M testing, turn
the ignition key to the on position for
15 seconds without cranking the
engine. If the service engine soon
indicator blinks eight times, it means
that the vehicle is not ready for I/M
testing; if the service engine soon
indicator stays on solid, it means that
the vehicle is ready for I/M testing.
The OBD-II system monitors the
emission control system during
normal driving. A complete check may
take several days. If the vehicle is not
ready for I/M testing, you may need
to perform the following driving cycle
consisting of mixed city and highway
driving:
Drive on an expressway or highway
for a steady 15 minutes, followed by
20 minutes of stop-and-go driving
with at least four 30-second idle
periods.Allow the vehicle to sit for at least
eight hours without starting the
engine. Then, start the engine and
complete the above driving cycle. The
engine must warm up to its normal
operating temperature. Once started,
do not turn off the engine until the
above driving cycle is complete. If the
vehicle is still not ready for I/M testing,
you will have to repeat the above
driving cycle.
