activated.Vehicles without a smart key system:
Turn the engine switch to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.

To minimize the risk of fuel le akage when the engine stalls or
when an airbag inflates upon collision, the fuel pump shut off
system stops supply of fuel to the engine.

Inspect the ground under the vehicle.
If you find that fuel has leaked onto the ground, the fuel system has been
