Handling the Unexpected
Emergency Power System Off
The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to turn the power system off due to
an emergency situation even while driving. If you must turn the power system off,
do either of the following operations:
• Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for about two seconds.
• Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button three times.
The steering wheel will not lock. However, because turning off the engine disables
the power assist the engine provides to the steering and braking systems, it will
require significantly more physical effort an d time to steer and slow the vehicle. Use
both feet on the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle and stop immediately in a
safe place.
The gear position automatically changes to
(P after the vehicle comes to a complete
stop. Then, the power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.
1 Emergency Power System Off
Do not press the ENGINE START/STOP button while
driving unless it is absolutely necessary for the power
system to be turned off.
If you press the ENGINE START/STOP button while
driving, the beeper sounds.
