Driving and Operating

Caution

Cranking the engine for long
periods of time, by returning the
ignition to the START position
immediately after cranking has
ended, can overheat and damage
the cranking motor, and drain the
battery. Wait at least 15 seconds
between each try, to let the
cranking motor cool down.

2. If the engine does not start

after five to 10 seconds,
especially in very cold weather
(below

18 °C or 0 °F), it could

be flooded with too much
gasoline. Try pushing the
accelerator pedal all the way to
the floor and holding it there as
you press ENGINE START/
STOP, for up to a maximum of
15 seconds. Wait at least
15 seconds between each try,
to allow the cranking motor to
cool down. When the engine
starts, let go of the button and
the accelerator. If the vehicle

starts briefly but then stops
again, do the same thing. This
clears the extra gasoline from
the engine. Do not race the
engine immediately after
starting it. Operate the engine
and transmission gently until
the oil warms up and lubricates
all moving parts.

Stop/Start System

The Stop/Start system will shut off
the engine to help conserve fuel.
It has components designed for the
increased number of starts.

{

Warning

The automatic engine Stop/Start
feature causes the engine to shut
off while the vehicle is still on. Do
not exit the vehicle before shifting
to P (Park). The vehicle may
restart and move unexpectedly.
Always shift to P (Park), and then
turn the ignition off before exiting
the vehicle.

Auto Engine Stop/Start

When the brakes are applied and
the vehicle is at a complete stop,
the engine may turn off. When
stopped, the tachometer displays
AUTO STOP. See

Tachometer

0

135

When the brake pedal is

released or the accelerator pedal is
pressed, the engine will restart.

To maintain vehicle performance,
other conditions may cause the
engine to automatically restart
before the brake pedal is released.

Auto Stops may not occur and/or
auto restarts may occur because:

.

The climate control settings
require the engine to be running
to cool or heat the vehicle
interior.

.

The vehicle battery charge
is low.

.

The vehicle battery has recently
been disconnected.

.

Minimum vehicle speed has not
been reached since the last
Auto Stop.
