when the brake pedal is released or the
throttle pedal is depressed. The transmission
will automatically re-engage upon engine
restart.
Conditions That Will Cause The Engine To Start
Automatically While In Autostop Mode:
The transmission gear selector is moved
out of DRIVE except in the PARK position.
To maintain cabin temperature comfort
HVAC is set to full defrost mode
HVAC system temperature or fan speed is
manually adjusted
Battery voltage drops too low
Low brake vacuum (e.g. after several brake
pedal applications)
Stop/Start OFF switch is pushed
A Stop/Start system error occurs
4WD system is put into 4WD LOW mode
(if equipped with 4WD) Conditions That Force An Application Of The
Electric Park Brake While In Autostop Mode:

You can also turn the temperature control
to maximum heat, the mode control to
floor and the blower control to high. This
allows the heater core to act as a supple-
ment to the radiator and aids in removing
heat from the engine cooling system.GEAR SELECTOR OVERRIDE
If a malfunction occurs and the gear selector
cannot be moved out of the PARK position,
you can use the following procedure to
temporarily move the gear selector:
1. Turn the engine OFF.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Using a screwdriver or similar tool, care-
fully separate the shifter bezel and boot
assembly from the center console, and
raise it up to access the gear selector
mechanism.
4. Press and maintain firm pressure on the brake pedal. 5. Insert a small screwdriver or similar tool
down into the gear selector override
access hole (at the left front corner of the
gear selector assembly), and push and
hold the override release lever down.
