Start/Stop button

2C_StartButton

Whenever the front door is opened, the Start/Stop button illuminates and goes off for a few seconds after the door is closed.

To turn the vehicle off in an emergency:

Press and hold the Start/Stop button for more than 2 seconds OR Rapidly press and release the Start/Stop button 3 times (within 3 seconds).

If the vehicle is still moving, you can restart the vehicle without depressing the brake pedal by pressing the Start/Stop button with the gear in the N (Neutral) position.

  • NEVER press the Start/Stop button while the vehicle is in motion except in an emergency. This results in the vehicle turning off and loss of power assist for the steering and brake systems. This may lead to loss of directional control and braking function, which could cause an accident.

  • Before leaving the driver's seat, always make sure the gear is in the P (Park) position, set the parking brake, press the Start/Stop button to the OFF position, and take the Smart Key with you. Unexpected vehicle movement may occur if these precautions are not followed.

  • NEVER reach through the steering wheel for the Start/Stop button or any other control while the vehicle is in motion. The presence of your hand or arm in this area may cause a loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident.
