CAUTION:
. Ifthe gauge indicates theengine coolant

For models withStop/Start SystemorIdling
Stop System:
While theengine isstopped bythe Stop/Start System
or the Idling StopSystem, switching theairflow tothe
front defogger willcause theengine toautomatically
restart.
While theengine isrunning, selecting airflowtothe
front defogger willprevent theStop/Start Systemor
Idling StopSystem fromautomatically stoppingthe
engine.
When theengine isstopped bythe Stop/Start System
or Idling StopSystem, heaterandairconditioner
performance maybereduced. To keep fullheater and
air conditioner performance, restarttheengine by
pushing theStop/Start SystemOFFswitch orthe
Idling StopSystem OFFswitch, orby placing the
ignition switchinthe ªONº position. Formore details
