engine is not running, the engine will automatically start, informing you that the car is still ON.

do not store your InFInItI Intelligent k ey™ within detection range of the vehicle. this may
cause welcome lights and other functions to activate creating unwanted battery drain.

may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full battery display does not indicate the
vehicle should be in the electric mode.
