Fast Restart

The fast restart feature allows you to
restart your vehicle within 10 seconds of
switching it off, even if it does not detect
a valid passive key.

Within 10 seconds of switching your vehicle
off, press the brake pedal and press the
power button. After 10 seconds, you can
no longer start your vehicle if it does not
detect a valid passive key.

Once your vehicle has started, it remains
running until you press the power button,
even if it does not detect a valid passive
key. If you open and close a door while your
vehicle is running, the system searches for
a valid passive key. You cannot start your
vehicle if the system does not detect a
valid passive key within 10 seconds.

SWITCHING OFF THE
ELECTRIC MOTOR

WARNING

Switching off the electric motor
when your vehicle is still moving will
result in a loss of brake and steering

assistance. The steering will not lock, but
higher effort will be required. With the
ignition switched off some electrical
circuits, warning lamps and indicators may
also be off. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death.

When your vehicle is not moving and the
electric motor is on or the ignition is in
accessory mode, press and release the
power button without pressing the brake
pedal. This will shut off the electric motor
and all electrical accessories.
