Fuel pump shut off system

To minimize the risk of fuel leakage when the engine stalls or an airbag inflates upon collision, the fuel pump shut off system stops supplying fuel to the engine.

Follow the procedure below to restart the engine after the system is activated.

1. Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to ACCESSORY mode or OFF.

2. Restart the engine.

NOTICE:
Before starting the engine Inspect the ground under the vehicle.

If you find that fuel has leaked on to the ground, the fuel system has been damaged
and is in need of repair. Do not restart the engine.
