column as shown.

Fast Restart
The fast restart feature allows you to
restart the vehicle within 20 seconds of
switching it off, even if a valid key is not
present. Within 20 seconds of switching the vehicle
off, press the brake pedal and press the
button. After 20 seconds have expired, you
can no longer restart the vehicle without
the key present inside your vehicle.

key. You cannot restart the vehicle if the
