PRECAUTION

NOTE: When disconnecting the negative (-) battery terminal, initialize the following system(s) after the terminal is reconnected.
- Power Window Control System
- Sliding Roof Control System

1. Precautions for the push button start function:
a. Before starting the engine, firmly depress the brake pedal until the indicator of the engine switch lights up in green.
b. The power source condition (OFF, ACC, ON) is always stored in the vehicle. After the battery is removed and reinstalled, the power source condition before battery removal will be restored. Be sure to turn the engine switch off before disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal. Always be aware of the power source condition before the battery dies or is removed.
c. After the battery is removed and reinstalled, be sure to wait 10 seconds or more before engine start. The engine may not start immediately after the battery is reinstalled.

d. If the key is held over the engine switch to start the engine because the key battery has died, the following warnings will sound:
1. Driver's door open -> close:
- Warning that the P position power remains on
- Warning that any of power for the shift positions other than P remains on

2. Doors other than the driver's door open -> close:
- Warning that any of the passengers is carrying the key out of the vehicle

These warnings will sound because whether the key is in the cabin or not cannot be determined. They do not indicate system malfunctions.
