Notice: Do not 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 on the brake pedal, press the START button located on the instrument panel. If there is not a keyless access transmitter present, the DIC will display NO FOB DETECTED. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-79 for more information. When the engine begins cranking, let go of the button. The idle speed will go down as your engine gets warm.

See "Battery Replacement" under Keyless Access System Operation on page 2-5 for more information. Notice: Holding the button in for longer than 15 seconds at a time will cause the vehicle's battery to be drained much sooner. This can also cause damage to the starter motor. Wait 15 seconds between each try to avoid draining your vehicle's battery or damaging the starter. 2. If the engine does not start and no DIC message is displayed, wait 15 seconds before trying again. Notice: Your engine is designed to work with the electronics in your vehicle.
