Driving and Operating 167
1. Press the brake pedal, thenpress ENGINE START/STOP
on the instrument panel.
If there is no remote key in the
vehicle or if there is something
causing interference with it, the
Driver Information Center (DIC)
will display a message.
2. When the engine begins cranking, let go of the button
and the engine cranks
automatically until it starts.
If the battery in the remote key
is weak, the DIC will display a
message. The vehicle can still
be driven.
See “Starting the Vehicle with a
Low Transmitter Battery” under
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation 09. If the
remote key battery is dead,
insert it into the cupholder
transmitter pocket to enable
engine starting.
3. Do not race the engine immediately after starting it.
Operate the engine and transmission gently until the oil
warms up and lubricates all
moving parts.
4. If the engine does not start and no DIC message is displayed,
wait 15 seconds before trying
again to let the cranking motor
cool down.
If the engine does not start
after five to 10 seconds,
especially in very cold weather
(below −18 °C or 0 °F), it could
be flooded with too much
gasoline. Try pushing the
accelerator pedal all the way to
the floor while cranking for up
to 15 seconds maximum. Wait
at least 15 seconds between
each try, to allow the cranking
motor to cool down. When the
engine starts, let go of the
accelerator. If the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again,
repeat these steps. This clears
the extra gasoline from the
engine.Caution
Cranking the engine for long
periods of time, by pressing
ENGINE START/STOP
immediately after cranking has
ended, can overheat and damage
the cranking motor, and drain the
battery. Wait at least 15 seconds
between each try, to let the
cranking motor cool down.
Stopping the Engine
Shift to P (Park) and press and hold
ENGINE START/STOP on the
instrument panel, until the engine
shuts off. If the transmission is not
in P (Park), the engine shuts off and
the vehicle goes into the accessory
mode. The DIC displays SHIFT TO
PARK. When shifted to P (Park) the
vehicle turns off.
If the remote key is not detected
inside the vehicle when it is turned
off, the DIC displays a message.
