STARTING THE VEHICLE
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust
both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat
belts.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always remove the
key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended is dangerous for a number of reasons.
A child or others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
transmission gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle,
or in a location accessible to children, and do
not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the ACC or ON/
RUN mode. A child could operate power win-
dows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.

hicle is Ready to Drive mode with the gear selector
in the PARK position. Apply the brake before shift-
ing to any driving range.
NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change with the
push of a button, the key fob may have a low or
dead battery. In this situation, a back up method can
be used to operate the ignition switch. Put the nose
side of the key fob (side opposite of the Emergency
Key) against the ENGINE START/STOP button
and push to operate the ignition switch.
