Starting a Gasoline Engine

Before starting your vehicle, check the following:

  • Make sure that the headlamps and electrical accessories are off.
  • Make sure that the parking brake is on.
  • Make sure that the transmission is in park (P).

 

  1. Fully press the brake pedal.

    Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal.

  2. Press the push button ignition switch.

    Note: The engine may continue cranking for up to 15 seconds or until it starts.

    Note: The engine takes longer to start at lower temperatures. It may crank for several seconds when very cold.

Restarting the Engine After Stopping it

The system allows you to start the engine within 10 seconds of switching it off, even if it does not detect a valid passive key.

Within 10 seconds of switching the engine off, fully press the brake pedal and press the push button ignition switch. After 10 seconds, you can no longer start the engine if the system does not detect a valid passive key.

When you start the engine, it remains running until you press the push button ignition switch, even if your vehicle does not detect a valid passive key. If you open and close a door when the engine is running, the system searches for a valid passive key.
