Push Button Start Positions

The system operates only when the key is
within operational range.
Each time the push button start is pressed,
the ignition switches in the order of off,
ACC, and ON. Pressing the push button
start again from ON switches the ignition
off.

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 push button start
indicator light (amber) also turns off.

In this position the steering wheel is
locked.

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:

Leaving the driver's seat without switching
the ignition off, setting the parking brake,
and shifting the selector lever to P 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.

NOTE

(Locked steering wheel)

If the push button start indicator light
(green) is flashing and the beep sound is

wheel is not unlocked. To unlock the
steering wheel, press the push button start
while moving the steering wheel left and
right.

Some electrical accessories will operate
and the indicator light (amber) illuminates.

unlocked.
