How Does Automatic Engine Stop
Work
Automatic engine stop automatically shuts
down the vehicle if it has been idling for an
extended period. The ignition also turns
off to save battery power. Before your
vehicle shuts down, a message appears in
the information display showing a timer
counting down. If you do not intervene
within 30 seconds, your vehicle shuts
down. Another message appears in the
information display to inform you that your
vehicle has shut down to save fuel. Start
your vehicle as normal.

countdown has expired by doing any of the
