To Turn Off The Engine Using ENGINE
START/STOP Button
1. With the vehicle stopped, place the shift lever in
NEUTRAL/PARK, then press and release the EN-
GINE START/STOP button.
2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch is left in the ACC position, the
system will automatically time out after 30 minutes
of inactivity and the ignition will switch to the OFF
position.
If the ignition switch is left in the RUN position, the
system will automatically time out after 30 minutes
of inactivity if the vehicle speed is 0 km/h and the
engine is not running.
If the shift lever is not in PARK and the vehicle speed
is above 8 km/h, the ENGINE START/STOP button
must be held for two seconds before the engine
shuts off. The ignition switch position will remain in
the ACC position until the vehicle is stopped and the
button is pressed twice to the OFF position.
Turbocharger “Cool Down”
NOTE: Letting the engine idle after extended opera-
tion allows the turbine housing to cool to normal
operating temperature.
The following chart should be used as a guide in
determining the amount of engine idle time required to
sufficiently cool down the turbocharger before shut
down, depending upon the type of driving and the
amount of cargo.
