HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY CUT-

The high-voltage shut off operation shuts
off power from the high-voltage battery
after a collision, or if your vehicle receives
a substantial physical jolt.

To reactivate the vehicle after either event
perform the following steps:

1.

Turn the ignition off.

2. Turn the ignition on.

3. If the vehicle is not powered after this

sequence, repeat steps 1 and 2.

For vehicles equipped with a push button
start system:

1.

Press the START/STOP button to
turn ignition off.

2. Press the brake pedal and press the

START/STOP button.

3. Remove your foot from the brake pedal

and press the START/STOP button

4. Press the START/STOP button again

to re-enable the vehicle.

Note: After completing this process the

safe and reactivate. Once your vehicle
determines the electrical system safe you
can start your vehicle as you would normally
by pressing the brake in combination with
the START/STOP button.

Note: In the event the vehicle does not
reactivate after the second key cycle,
