include the start of the engine depending on conditions
such as battery state of charge and engine temperature.
4. If you wish to terminate Vehicle is Ready to Drive mode, push the button again.
ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions — With Driv-
er ’s Foot OFF The Brake Pedal (In PARK Or NEUTRAL
Position)
The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar to an
ignition switch by providing three positions: OFF, ACC
and RUN. To change the ignition mode without starting
the vehicle (to power certain accessories), follow these
steps:
1. Starting with the ignition in the OFF mode.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once, without brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition in the
ACC mode (instrument cluster will display “ACC”).
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time, without brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition
in the RUN mode (instrument cluster will display
“Ignition or Accessory On”). NOTE:
•The vehicle is not able to be driven in the “Ignition or
Accessory On” mode, see “Achieving Vehicle Is Ready
To Drive Mode Using the ENGINE START / STOP
Button” previously defined in this section for further
information.
• The rotary gear selector will turn but only PARK and
NEUTRAL are accessible in the “Ignition or Accessory
On” mode.
4. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time, without brake pedal being pressed, to return the igni-
tion to the OFF mode (instrument cluster will display
“OFF”).
Cold Weather Operation
If the outside ambient temperature is 5°F (-15°C) or below,
the instrument cluster will request the vehicle to be
plugged in to provide conditioning of the vehicle high
voltage battery.
After Starting
To optimize energy efficiency, the vehicle will automati-
cally control engine operation.

STARTING AND OPERATING 279

To Turn Off The Vehicle Using ENGINE
START/STOP Button
1. Place the gear selector in PARK, then push and releasethe ENGINE START/STOP button.
2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position.
3. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle speed less than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the ENGINE START/
STOP button is pushed, the instrument cluster display
will display a “Vehicle Not In Park” message, and the
vehicle will remain running.
4. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle speed greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the ENGINE
START/STOP button is pushed continuously for at least
two seconds (or three short pushes in a row) the vehicle
ignition mode will exit Drive Readymode and enter
Accessory mode. Never leave a vehicle out of the
PARK position, or it could roll. NOTE:
•
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shutdown
feature. If the vehicle is left in a “READY” state (vehicle
running) with the shifter in “PARK” for one hour, the
vehicle will automatically turn itself off.
• The vehicle provides automatic notification, using a
three Horn Chirp Alert, cluster chiming, and a cluster
message (Key Fob has Left the Vehicle) if the vehicle
was not turned OFF (still Ready to Drive) and a valid
FOB for the vehicle is not detected within the passenger
cabin, following the opening and closing of any passen-
ger compartment door (requires all doors to be closed
before the FOB check will occur). These automatic alerts
are to remind the driver to turn OFF the vehicle before
leaving it, as well as, to let the driver know that the
vehicle’s FOB may have been unintentionally removed
from the vehicle by an exiting passenger. After provid-
ing the horn chirp alert, additional auto chirps will be
inhibited until the shifter has been moved out of Park or
ignition cycled.
280 STARTING AND OPERATING

Once the park brake is fully disengaged, the BRAKE
warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED
indicator on the switch will extinguish.
Your vehicle has been equipped with an automatic hill
parking grade feature. If the vehicle is placed in park on
moderate to steep grade, the electric park brake has been
designed to automatically apply when necessary. When
this occurs, a message will display in the cluster, and the
“BRAKE” lamp and parking brake selector button will
illuminate to indicate activation. The electric parking brake
will automatically release when shifting out of park if your
seatbelt is buckled. Additionally, the driver will always
have the ability to manually release the electric parking
brake by pressing the selector button on the console.
NOTE:When parking on a hill, it is important to turn the
front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and
away from the curb on an uphill grade. The park brake
should always be applied whenever the driver is not in the
vehicle.WARNING!
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the
parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully
when parked to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
• When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the
ignition is in the OFF mode, remove the key fob from
the vehicle, and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to
be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number
of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the trans-
mission gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, (or in
a location accessible to children), and do not leave
the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
• Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before
driving; failure to do so can lead to brake failure and
a collision.

pedal must be pressed. The brake pedal must also be
pressed to shift from NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE
when the vehicle is stopped or moving at low speeds.
Hybrid Transmission
The transmission is controlled using a rotary electronic
gear selector located on the center console. The transmis-
sion gear selector has PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL,
DRIVE, and LOW shift positions. Using the LOW position
will increase the rate of deceleration along with increasing
regeneration of power into the vehicle’s High Voltage (HV)
battery (in comparison to the DRIVE position). The trans-
mission gear range (PRNDL) is displayed both above the
gear selector and in the instrument cluster display. To select
a gear range, simply rotate the gear selector. Push down on
the gear selector, and then rotate it, to access the L position.
You must also press the brake pedal to shift the transmis-
sion out of PARK (or NEUTRAL, when the vehicle is
stopped). To shift past multiple gear ranges at once (such as
PARK to DRIVE), simply rotate the gear selector to the
appropriate detent. Select the DRIVE range for normal
driving.NOTE:
In the event of a mismatch between the gear
selector position and the actual transmission gear (for
example, driver selects PARK while driving), the position
indicator will blink continuously until the selector is re-
turned to the proper position, or the requested shift can be
completed.
Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE when the
accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped. Be
sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when shifting
between these gears.

288 STARTING AND OPERATING

WARNING!(Continued)
•Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure
those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you
should never exit a vehicle while the engine is
running or the propulsion system is active. Before
exiting a vehicle, always come to a complete stop,
then apply the park brake, shift the transmission into
PARK, and turn the ignition OFF. When the ignition
is in the OFF mode, the transmission is locked in
PARK, securing the vehicle against unwanted move-
ment.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the
ignition is in the OFF mode, remove the key fob from
the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to
be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number
of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the park brake, brake pedal or the transmis-
sion gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in
a location accessible to children), and do not leave

the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
• Before moving the transmission gear selector out of
PARK, you must turn the ignition to the ON/RUN
mode, and also press the brake pedal. Otherwise, dam-
age to the gear selector could result.
• DO NOT depress the accelerator pedal when shifting
from PARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as
this can damage the drivetrain.
The following indicators should be used to ensure that you
have properly engaged the transmission into the PARK
position:
• Look at the transmission gear position display and
verify that it indicates the PARK position (P), and is not
blinking.
• With brake pedal released, verify that the gear selector
will not move out of PARK.
290 STARTING AND OPERATING

REVERSE (R)
This range is for moving the vehicle backward. Shift into
REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete
stop.
NOTE:Based on the drive gear and/or speed of the
vehicle, the Quiet Vehicle Pedestrian Module (QVPM) will
broadcast a sound to warn nearby pedestrians that a
vehicle is approaching. In addition, the module will indi-
cate change in speed by varying the pitch of sound.
NEUTRAL (N)
Use this range when the vehicle is standing for prolonged
periods with the propulsion system active. The vehicle
may be started in this range. Apply the park brake and
shift the transmission into PARK if you must exit the
vehicle.
WARNING!
Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the
ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe practices
that limit your response to changing traffic or road
conditions. You might lose control of the vehicle and
have a collision.
CAUTION!
Towing the vehicle, coasting, or driving for any other
reason with the transmission in NEUTRAL can cause
severe transmission damage.
Refer to “Recreational Towing” in “Starting And Op-
erating” and “Towing A Disabled Vehicle” in “In Case
Of Emergency” for further information.
DRIVE (D)
This range should be used for most city and highway
driving. The DRIVE position provides optimum driving
characteristics under all normal operating conditions.
NOTE:
• If the transmission becomes too hot, the Transmission
Temperature Warning Light may illuminate, a warning
message may appear in the instrument cluster display
and the torque level may be reduced until the transmis-
sion cools down.
• Based on the drive gear and/or speed of the vehicle, the
Quiet Vehicle Pedestrian Module (QVPM) will broadcast
a sound to warn nearby pedestrians that a vehicle is
approaching. In addition, the module will indicate
change in speed by varying the pitch of sound.
