Note: The green ready indicator illuminates
letting you know that your vehicle is ready
for driving. Since your vehicle is equipped
with a silent key start, the engine may not

When the engine starts for the first time
on your drive, the idle speed increases, this
helps to warm up the engine. If the engine
idle speed does not slow down, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
The system does not function if:
• The passive key frequencies are jammed.
• The key battery has no charge.

The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours
of energy per hour of use. The system does
not have a thermostat. It achieves
maximum temperature after
approximately three hours of operation.
Using the engine block heater longer than
three hours does not improve system
performance and unnecessarily uses
electricity.

Automatic engine stop is a feature that
switches the engine off if it has been idling
for an extended period to help you save
fuel.
HOW DOES AUTOMATIC ENGINE

off. The ignition also turns off in order to
save battery power. Before the engine
shuts down, a message appears in the
information display showing a timer
counting down. If you do not intervene
within 30 seconds, the engine shuts down.
Another message appears in the
information display to inform you that the
engine has shut down in order to save fuel.
Start your vehicle as you normally do.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE
ENGINE – FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
Why is the engine idle speed high when
I am starting the engine?The speed at which the engine idles
immediately after starting is optimized
to minimize vehicle emissions and
maximize cabin comfort and fuel
economy.
Why does the engine not crank? You can only attempt to start the
engine for a limited amount of time
before the starting system temporarily
disables. If you exceed the starting
time limit, a message may appear and
you cannot attempt to start the engine
for at least 15 minutes.
Why do I experience different driving
characteristics? If you disconnect the battery, your
vehicle may exhibit some unusual
driving characteristics for
approximately 5 mi (8 km) after you
reconnect it. This is because the engine
management system must realign
itself with the engine. You can
disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.
Why can I not start the engine? If you cannot start the engine after 3
attempts, wait 10 seconds and do the
following:
Vehicles Without Push Button Start
1. Fully press the brake pedal.
Note: Make sure that the parking brake is
applied.
Note: Make sure that the transmission is in

engine, insert the passive key into the
backup position and press the push
button ignition switch to start the
engine. See Programming the
Remote Control (page 62).
