Handling the Unexpected
Emergency Engine Stop
The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to stop the engine due to an
emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the engine, do either of the
following operations:
• Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for about two seconds.
• Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button twice.
The steering wheel will not lock. However, because turning off the engine disables
the power assist the engine provides to the steering and braking systems, it will
require significantly more physical effort an d time to steer and slow the vehicle. Use
both feet on the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle and stop immediately in a
safe place. With manual transmission models you can also downshift the
transmission to utilize engine braking.
The power mode is in ACCESSORY when the engine is stopped.
To change the mode to VEHICLE OFF, move the shift lever to
(P after the vehicle
comes to a complete stop.
Then press the ENGINE START/STOP button twice without depressing the brake
pedal.
The power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.

uuIndicator, Coming On/Blinking uIf the Electric Power Steering (EPS) System Indicator Comes On
Handling the Unexpected
If the Electric Power Steeri ng (EPS) System Indicator
Comes On
■Reasons for the indicator to come on
• Comes on when there is a problem with the EPS system.
• If you depress the accelerator pedal repeatedly to increase the engine
speed while the engine is idling, the indicator comes on, and
sometimes the steering wheel becomes harder to operate.
• Comes on when EPS steering angle cent er point memory is lost. This
could be due to a number of problems to include: battery disconnect,
main fuse blow, low battery causing reset of the EPS system, wire
damage to EPS harness. Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA ®), VSA® OFF,
Collision Mitigation Braking System
TM (CMBSTM)*, and low tire
pressure/TPMS* indicators also come on with EPS indicator.
The Drive Carefully Systems Initializing... message appears on the
driver information interface.
■What to do when th e indicator comes on
• Stop the vehicle in a safe place and restart the engine.
If the indicator comes on and stays on, immediately have your vehicle
inspected by a dealer.
• If the EPS indicator, VSA ® indicator, VSA® OFF indicator, CMBS
TM
indicator*, and low tire pressure/TPMS indicator* come on
simultaneously, you need to ca librate the VSA and EPS systems.
Drive at a speed of more than 12 mph (20 km/h) for less than 10
seconds to calibrate the VSA and EPS systems.
If the indicators come on and stay on, park your vehicle in a safe
place, turn off and restart the engine, then repeat the above
operation.
If the indicators still come on an d stay on, immediately have your
vehicle inspected by a dealer.
