Turning the Engine Off
WARNING
Do not stop the engine while the
vehicle is moving:
Stopping the engine while the vehicle is
moving for any reason other than in an
emergency is dangerous. Stopping the
engine while the vehicle is moving will
result in reduced braking ability due to
the loss of power braking, which could
cause an accident and serious injury.

brake.
(Automatic transaxle)
Shift the selector lever to the P position
