IGNITION SYSTEM
Operation
To activate the keyless ignition, the key
fob must be inside the passenger
compartment.
The keyless ignition has the following
modes:
STOP: engine off, steering locked.
Some electrical devices (e.g. central
door locking system, alarm, etc.) are
still available.
ON: all electrical devices are
available. This state can be entered by
pushing the ignition button once,
without pressing the brake pedal.
AVV: engine starting. This state can be
entered by pushing the ignition button
once while pressing the brake pedal.
Note:
With the keyless ignition in the ON
position: if 30 minutes pass with the
gear selector in P (Park) and the
engine stopped, the keyless ignition
will automatically reset to the STOP
position.
With the engine started, it is
possible to remove the key fob from
the vehicle. The engine will remain
running and the instrument cluster will
indicate the absence of the key fob
when the door is closed.
For more information on the engine
start-up, refer to "Starting The Engine"
in "Starting And Operating."
Warning!
Never use the PARK position as a
substitute for the parking brake. Always
apply the parking brake fully when parked
to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle
unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the transmission gear
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition in
the AVV or ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
Be sure the parking brake is fully
disengaged before driving; failure to do so
can lead to brake failure and a collision.
Always fully apply the parking brake
when leaving your vehicle, or it may roll and
cause damage or injury. Also be certain to
leave the transmission in PARK. Failure to
do so may allow the vehicle to roll and
cause damage or injury.
Driving the vehicle with the parking brake
engaged, or repeated use of the parking
brake to slow the vehicle may cause
serious damage to the brake system.
Caution!
If the Brake System Warning Light remains
on with the parking brake released, a brake
system malfunction is indicated. Have the
brake system serviced by an authorized
dealer immediately.

dealer.
Important Notes
Do not tamper with the Engine
Immobilizer system. Any modifications
or alterations could cause the
protection function to be deactivated.
The Engine Immobilizer system is not
compatible with certain aftermarket
remote starting systems. The use of
these devices could cause problems
when starting, as well as the
deactivation of the protection function.
All keys provided with the vehicle
have been programmed in accordance
with the electronics on the vehicle itself.
Each key has its own code which
must be stored by the system's control
unit. Contact an authorized dealer to
have new keys (up to eight) stored with
a code.

the system is pushed.
Switching On The Climate Control
System
To switch the climate control system on
in automatic mode, push the AUTO
button.
Stop/Start Evo
The climate control system manages
the Stop/Start Evo system. Stop/Start
Evo has the engine shut off when
vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h) to
maintain comfort within the vehicle.
Stop/Start Evo will deactivate in the
following scenarios:
The climate control system is in
AUTO mode (indicator illuminated), and
the vehicle has yet to reach the set
temperature
The LO setting is active
MAX-DEF status is active
When the Stop/Start Evo system is
active, the engine will restart if the
inside temperature changes
significantly, or if the LO setting, or
MAX-DEF setting, is activated.
With Stop/Start Evo system on, air flow
is reduced to keep the compartment
comfort conditions for longer.

changes within the cabin, the climate
control system will continue to maintain
the temperature while the engine is off.
By deactivating the Stop/Start Evo
system with the
button located on
the dashboard, the climate control
system will take priority over the engine
shutting off. Note:
In harsh climate conditions, limit the
use of the Stop/Start Evo system to
prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off. This
will cause rapid misting of the windows
and the accumulation of humidity in
the passenger compartment.
When the Stop/Start Evo system is
on, the climate control system will
always take air in from outside,
reducing the probability of the windows
fogging up.
Additional Heater — If
Equipped
Note:
The additional heater automatically
operates if the outside temperature and
engine coolant temperature are low.
The heater will not operate if battery
voltage is low.
System Maintenance
In winter, the Climate Control System
must be turned on at least once a
month for approximately 10 minutes.
Have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer before the summer.
