Push button start system
Your vehicle is equipped with the
push button start system, you can
start your vehicle by pressing the
start button in combination with the
brake pedal. The start button is
located on the instrument panel to
right of the steering wheel.
Note: To start your vehicle, your
Intelligent Access key (IA key) must
be present inside the vehicle.
Starting the engine
1. Press the START/STOP button (for any length of time) while applying
the brake pedal. Your vehicle has a computer assisted cranking system
that assists in starting the engine. After releasing the button from the 4
(start) position, the engine may continue cranking for up to 10 seconds
or until the vehicle starts.
Note: You cannot immediately start your vehicle from the on mode, you
must first switch the vehicle off. Note: The indicator light on the start
button will illuminate when the vehicle is in on mode and when the
engine is started.
2. After idling for a few seconds, release the parking brake, apply the
brake, shift into gear and drive.
Note: If the engine does not start on the first try, turn the vehicle to the
off position, wait 10 seconds and try Step 1 again. If the engine still fails
to start, press the accelerator to the floor and try Step 1 again, keeping
the accelerator on the floor until the engine begins to accelerate above
cranking speeds; this will allow the engine to crank with the fuel shut off
in case the engine is flooded with fuel.
