OIK057001
To reduce risk of serious injury
or death, NEVER allow children
or any person who is unfamiliar
with the vehicle to touch the
Engine Start/Stop button or
related parts. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur.
WARNING
NEVER press the Engine Start/
Stop button while the vehicle
is in motion except in an emer-
gency. This will result in the
engine turning off and loss of
power assist for the steering
and brake systems.
WARNING
To turn the engine off in an
emergency:
Press and hold the Engine
Start/Stop button for more than
two seconds OR rapidly press
and release the Engine Start/
Stop button three times (within
three seconds).
If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the engine without
depressing the brake pedal by
pressing the Engine Start/Stop
button with the shift lever in the
N (Neutral) position.
This may lead to loss of direc-
tional control and braking
function, which could cause
an accident.
Before leaving the driver's
seat, always make sure the
vehicle is in neutral (for manu-
al transmission vehicle) or P
(Park, for automatic transmis-
sion vehicle), apply the park-
ing brake, press the Engine
Start/ Stop button to the OFF
position, and take the Smart
Key with you. Unexpected
vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
followed.
NEVER reach through the
steering wheel for the Engine
Start/Stop button or any other
control while the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of your
hand or arm in this area may
cause a loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
