Remote Vehicle StartF
A fuel-saving stop/start system has been integrated with the 1.4L turbocharged engine. While driving, when the brakes are applied and the vehicle is at a complete stop, the engine may turn off, depending on conditions. When the engine stops, the tachometer gauge will read AUTO STOP. The audio system, climate controls and other accessories will continue to operate. Upon releasing the brake pedal or applying the accelerator pedal, the engine will restart. After turning off the engine, the tachometer gauge will read OFF.
The engine may remain running or restart if:
• A minimum vehicle speed is not reached.
• The shift lever is in any gear other than Drive (D).
• The battery state of charge is low.
• The outside temperature is not in the required operating range.
• The engine or transmission is not at the required operating temperature.
• The climate control system requires the engine to run based on the climate control or defog setting. Select the ECO air conditioning setting (green A/C indicator) to maximize the frequency and duration of Auto Stops.
• The Auto Stop time is greater than two minutes.

Tire Pressure Monitor
Engine Oil Life System
The Low Tire Pressure warning light on the instrument cluster illuminates when one or more of the vehicle’s tires is significantly underinflated. Fill the tires to the proper tire pressures. The proper tire pressures for the vehicle are listed on the Tire and Loading Information label located below the driver’s door latch. Current tire pressures can be viewed in the Driver Information Center Vehicle Information menu.
Tire pressure is affected by cold weather and distance driven. If the low tire pressure
warning light illuminates when the vehicle is first started and then turns off as the
vehicle is driven, check for the proper tire pressures.
Refer to your Owner Manual for information about normal monthly tire
maintenance.
See Vehicle Care in your Owner Manual.
The Oil Life System calculates engine oil life based on vehicle use and displays Change Engine Oil Soon on the Driver Information Center (DIC) when it’s necessary to change the engine oil and filter. The system should be reset to 100% only following an oil change.
