for further information.
3. At the next vehicle stop (after turning off the
Stop/Start system) the engine will not be
stopped.

Automatic Shutdown
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shut-
down feature. If the vehicle is left in READY
mode (vehicle running) with the gear selector in
PARK for one hour after the driver exits, this
feature will automatically turn the vehicle off.
Notifications have been added into this feature
to raise awareness of the timed event:
In the interior of the vehicle, the instrument
cluster will display “Ready To Drive”, and will
be accompanied by three audible chimes
while exiting. These interior warnings will
occur regardless of whether the key fob
remains in the vehicle or is removed.
For the exterior of the vehicle, the horn will
sound three times if the fob is removed from
the vehicle and the vehicle is in the “READY”
mode.
Please consider this feature when intentionally
running the vehicle for extended periods of time
over one hour. To restart the vehicle, follow the
normal vehicle starting process.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is left in the ACC or RUN (engine
not running) position and the transmission is in
PARK, the system will automatically time out
