FORD 2012 Fiesta v.3 - Manual (Page 238)

Fast restart feature: The fast restart feature allows you to re-start your
vehicle within 10 seconds of switching the vehicle off, if a valid IA key is
not present when the vehicle is switched off. You can re-start the vehicle
(by applying the brake/clutch pedal and pressing the START/STOP button)
for up to 10 seconds, even though the IA key is not present. After
10 seconds have expired, you can no longer start your vehicle without the
IA key present inside the vehicle. If the driver door is opened within this
10 seconds, the fast restart timer expires immediately.
Switching the vehicle off when not in P (Park): It is recommended
that you shift into the P (Park) position before switching your vehicle
off. If you switch your vehicle off with the shifter in any position other
than P (Park), the message SHIFT TO PARK will be displayed in the
multifunction display. If the vehicle is left in this state, your key in
ignition chime will activate when the driver door is opened, and you may
drain your vehicle’s battery. In order to avoid draining your battery, it is
recommended that you always shift to P (Park) before or immediately
after switching your vehicle off.
Absence of the intelligent access key: Once the vehicle has started,
the vehicle will remain running until being turned off by the START/STOP
button, even if the IA key is no longer found in the vehicle. Whenever a door
is opened and then closed while the vehicle is running, the system will
search for an IA key inside the vehicle and the multifunction display will
display KEY OUTSIDE CAR if the IA key is no longer present. This message
is a reminder that someone else in the vehicle may have taken the IA key
when exiting the vehicle. If the IA key is no longer present in the vehicle,
you will not be able to re-start your vehicle outside of the Fast Restart time
(see Fast Restart Feature above). It is important to be aware of where your
IA key is located in the vehicle, to avoid becoming stranded without an IA
key.
Guarding Against Exhaust Fumes
WARNING: If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have
this checked immediately. Do not drive your vehicle if you smell
exhaust fumes. Carbon monoxide is present in exhaust fumes. Take
precautions to avoid its dangerous effects.
Important Ventilating Information
If you stop your vehicle and leave the engine idling for long periods of time,
we recommend that you do one of the following:
• Open the windows at least 1 inch (2.5 cm).
• Set your climate control to outside air.
