Retained Accessory Power (RAP)

Your vehicle is equipped with a Retained Accessory

Power (RAP) feature which will allow certain features

of your vehicle to continue to work up to 20 minutes

after the ignition key is turned to OFF.

Your radio, power windows, sunroof and overhead

console will work when the ignition key is in RUN or

ACCESSORY. Once the key is turned from RUN

to OFF, these features will continue to work for up

to 20 minutes or until a door is opened.

Starting Your Engine

Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).

Your engine won’t start in any other position

-- that’s

a safety feature. To restart when you’re already moving,

use NEUTRAL (N) only.

NOTICE:

Don’t try to shift to PARK (P) if your vehicle is

moving. If you do, you could damage the

transmission. Shift to PARK (P) only when your

vehicle is stopped.

1. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, turn your

ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let

go of the key. The idle speed will go down as your

engine gets warm.

NOTICE:

Holding your key in START for longer than

15 seconds at a time will cause your battery to

be drained much sooner. And the excessive heat

can damage your starter motor. Wait about

15 seconds between each try to help avoid

draining your battery or damaging your starter.

2. If it doesn’t start within 10 seconds, hold your key in

START for not more than 10 seconds. Then, push the

accelerator pedal all the way down for five more

seconds, unless it starts sooner.
