1. Indicator light
2. Push button start
NOTE
The engine starts by pressing the
push button start while depressing
the brake pedal. To switch the
ignition position, press the push
button start without depressing the
pedal.
Do not leave the ignition switched
ON while the engine is not running.
Doing so could result in the battery
going dead. If the selector lever is in
the P position, and the ignition is in
ACC, the ignition switches off
automatically after about 25
minutes.
Off
The power supply to electrical devices
turns off and the indicator light
(amber) also turns off.
WARNING
Before leaving the driver's seat,
always switch the ignition off, set the
parking brake, and make sure the
selector lever is in P position:
Leaving the driver's seat without
switching the ignition off, setting the
parking brake, and shifting the selector
lever to P position is dangerous.
Unexpected vehicle movement could
occur which could result in an
accident.
In addition, if your intention is to leave
the vehicle for even a short period, it is
important to switch the ignition off, as
leaving it in another position will
disable some of the vehicle's security
systems and run the battery down.
ACC (Accessory)
Some electrical accessories will
operate and the indicator light (amber)
illuminates.
NOTE
The keyless entry system does not
function while the push button start
has been pressed to ACC, and the
doors will not lock/unlock even if they
have been locked manually.
ON
This is the normal running position
after the engine is started. The
indicator light (amber) turns off. (The
indicator light (amber) illuminates
when the ignition is switched ON and
the engine is not running.)
Some indicator lights/warning lights
should be inspected before the engine
is started.

in the charging area, the chargingefficiency may decrease or charging
may not be possible depending on
where the mobile device is placed.
If the function to reduce noise on the
radio is used, fast charging may be
disabled depending on the mobile
device being charged.
Depending on the mobile device
case or accessories used, the mobile
device may not charge, or the
charging efficiency may be reduced
resulting in a longer charging time. If
charging does not start even when a
mobile device is placed on the
charging area, remove the mobile
device case or any accessories.
While the keyless entry is operating,
charging may stop temporarily,
however, this does not indicate a
problem.
During charging , the Wireless
Charger (Qi) and the mobile device
become warm, however, this does
not indicate a problem.
If the mobile device temperature
rises during charging , charging may
stop due to the protection function
of the device. If that happens, wait
until the mobile device cools down
sufficiently and then recharge it.
When using the Wireless Charger
(Qi), applications using the Near
